Join us on November 13/14

for 24 Hours of Heroes 2021

Hey everyone!

Izzy here with an event update…. we are beyond excited to announce this year’s 24 Hours of Heroes format!

Building off of our AMAZING momentum from last year, and to accommodate the ongoing changes and challenges of COVID-19, we will again be running our event “virtually” over November 13th and 14th. Consistent with last year’s format, we will connect via Zoom for 4 Hero workouts per day, so we can continue our mission to workout in honour and remembrance of our fallen service men and women.

Last year, we were able to exceed our expectations of this new format - and put up a record year in terms of both fundraising and participants - all with the help of our amazingly supportive community. We are so excited to once again connect with individuals from across the country to sweat together, but apart! At 24 Hours of Heroes, we continue to dedicate ourselves to making mental health a priority, especially for the frontline workers and service women and men for whom we workout, and this past year has only served to prove that this has even greater importance. Continuing our partnership with Wounded Warriors Canada and National Service Dogs, we are so excited to further spread our message and support veterans and first responders living with PTSD.

Event details:

  • 4 Hero workouts Saturday, November 13th AND another 4 Hero workouts on Sunday, November 14th (You may choose to do one workout, or as many as you’d like)

    • Full hero workout details will be release over upcoming months

  • Register and fundraise in one of two ways:

    • “Remote” Individual - Complete the workout at home, where you will be provided access to various scaling options including a limited equipment/bodyweight version, and have access to the Zoom feed (Don’t worry, a coach will still be present on the feed to help you out with any questions!).

    • Participant at a satellite gym - Complete the workout in your desired gym facility, where you can choose the best scaling option for you with the help of a ‘live’ coach, with gym access to the Zoom feed.

  • At the start of each workout (starting every 75 minutes to accommodate extra cleaning protocols in gyms), we will review the workout and hero(es), and do a group warm-up all via Zoom before getting to work.

  • Top fundraising gyms and individuals will receive special prizing from our amazing sponsors!

  • Our official registration launch date will be September 1, 2021.
    (Note: Host gyms/teams can register prior to that date, but fundraising will not commence until that time)

We are so grateful to everyone who has continued to support our event and cause, especially throughout all of the challenges of the past year, and we are certain that there are great things ahead. We can’t wait to see what we are able to accomplish together this year… and if our track record is any indication, it’s going to be FANTASTIC!!

From myself, and the whole 24 Hours of Heroes team: We can’t wait to see you :)

Love, Izzy
