Fighting Breast Cancer

The challenging 16-kilometer course starts on the beach at Ambleside Park in West Vancouver, winds its way through North Vancouver, then heads up the legendary Grouse Grind® to the Peak of Vancouver.

Seek the Peak is not strictly a race for elite athletes. Participants are primarily motivated by the symbolic overcoming of a significant obstacle, reflecting the ongoing fight against breast cancer.

This event is about rethinking what matters. It’s about rethinking our pain thresholds and our ambitions. More than this, it’s about rethinking our priorities. Support Rethink and together we will overcome breast cancer.

Where The Funds Go

Over the past eight years, this unique, pledge-driven event has raised over $200,000 for Rethink Breast Cancer. By participating in Seek the Peak you are showing your support for young women dealing with breast cancer. All funds that are raised from Seek the Peak directly support BC-based researchers who are working towards the goal of finding a cure for breast cancer, as well as innovative support programs for young women dealing with breast cancer in British Columbia
