A YEAR OF HEALTH AND ADVENTURE
We want you to start 2020 the same way you left 2019: Staying physically active and involved in fun BC events. To help make that goal a little simpler, we’ve put together a list of local races and sporting events that will get your body moving, keep you smiling and get a good sweat going as you play.
January started with the annual polar bear swim when crowds of Vancouverites went to the English Bay to swim and celebrate. Hopefully, you didn’t miss it (or hopefully you did!). Make sure you mark your calendar to ensure you don’t miss the upcoming events list below if you’d like to join the Symmetrix staff in staying active in 2020, contact us today to learn how to incorporate exercise and rehab in your new year of adventure.
