Unblock the Clot: Run in Support of Thrombosis Awareness

Join the CBU community on Saturday, October 5, at 9:30am at the Ness Timmons Soccer Field on the CBU campus for the Unblock the Clot run in support of Thrombosis awareness.

Following a November, 2022 injury and subsequent pulmonary embolism/pulmonary infarction diagnosis, former CAPERS Varsity Soccer athlete, Janelle Tierney, has made it her mission to share her story and raise awareness for the signs and symptoms of Thrombosis.

Through a partnership with the Cape Breton Regional Hospital Foundation, Unblock the Clot was born. There are two different sections for this event, a Kids Fun Run, with a minimum $5 donation entry fee and the 5KM Run, which has a minimum $20 donation entry fee.
