In partnership with The Do Good Movement, Lake Katherine will offer this first time event bringing the love for kayaking and running into one place. Get ready to enjoy the serene waters, lush surroundings, and maybe even spot some wildlife along the way.

Our event consists of a 20 minute kayak race of a half mile loop. Your goal is to see how many loops you can complete in 20 minutes. After the kayak portion you will have a 15 minute transition to our running portion of the race. You will have another 20 minutes to see how many loops around Lake Katherine you can complete on the woodchip path. Each loop is one mile. There are 6 different time slots within the 4hr allotted timeframe.

All participants will receive an official Kayak-a-thon beanie for participating.

Organized by

The Do Good Movement

Doing good for you while doing good for others. The Do Good Movement is the collaboration of events that benefit partnering charities. While participating or organizing events with the Do Good Movement, part of the proceeds are donated to the charity of choice.

The Do Good Movement originated from the yoga philosophy of karma; that which you give out within the universe shall be returned to you. The core of the DGM events is yoga classes where part of the cost of the classes is donated to a partnering charity. We then take our yoga practice off of the mat and give ourselves to the partnering charity by volunteering our time with them through organized events. This resulting in doing good for you through the practice of yoga and doing good for others through donated funds and volunteer work.

If you are a charity looking to increase your revenue, a charity participant needing help to reach a fundraising goal or a company looking for opportunities to bring a wellness program to your employees, than the Do Good Movement is the program for you.
