Nationality: Canadian. Occupation: Part-time Minister and Mental Health Therapist. Missions with C4C: Peru 2025. How long have you climbed? Hiking on and off the last 35 years; have maintained a general fitness level over the years since high school from being a middle-distance runner to doing a variety of sports most days out in nature. I took up distance walking in the last 10 years. My favourite sport is cross country skiing. Come to Canada and do the Canadian Ski Marathon, a distance for everyone!
