CMCC Backs in Motion

CMCC Backs in Motion is a community-focused charity race held in Toronto, Canada, bringing runners and walkers together for a spring event that blends fitness, nature, and fundraising. Organized around a 10K run and 5K run/walk, the event stands out for its parkland setting in the East Don Parklands, giving participants a more natural, trail-oriented experience than a typical downtown road race. Rather than being only about competition, Backs in Motion is positioned as a broader community event that supports Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (CMCC), including its chiropractic education, clinics, patient care, and students in need. Its long history, scenic course, and cause-based identity have helped make it a recognizable annual fixture for supporters of CMCC and for local runners looking for a welcoming spring event in Toronto.
