Landon completes 800+ km run across Nova Scotia, raising more than $63,000 for Autism Nova Scotia

After roughly 14 days on the road and more than 800 kilometers covered, Landon has officially completed his run across Nova Scotia in support of Autism Nova Scotia and the summer camps they provide!

Along the way, supporters stepped up in a big way, helping raise more than $65,000 The funds will help support Autism Nova Scotia’s summer camp programs and the important work the organization does for individuals and families across the province. He covered anywhere from 40-70 kms a day and pushed through some pain, especially in one of his legs.

I was able to call him most mornings on his marathon! Here’s a supercut of those calls!

Congratulations again to Landon on an amazing accomplishment and thank you to everyone who supported the journey.

Listen to our final conversation with Landon below.
