On April 19, 2026, Coast Mental Health staff came together to run, walk, and cheer one another on at the 42nd annual Vancouver Sun Run and what a day it was.

From early‑morning start lines to the final stretch of the course, Coast team members showed up with determination, enthusiasm, and a strong sense of connection. Some participants tackled their very first 10K, while others returned as seasoned Sun Run veterans. Regardless of experience, everyone shared the same goal: moving together and celebrating health, teamwork, and community.

The Vancouver Sun Run is one of Canada’s most iconic run-and-walk events, and participating as a Coast team was a meaningful way to bring our values to life. Events like this support healthy employees while reinforcing a workplace culture where people feel encouraged, valued, and included. Beyond physical activity, they strengthen relationships, build morale, and create shared moments that carry back into our day‑to‑day work.
