Mountain Climbing

Join the TSNW Mountain Climb! Each year, a group of women train and summit a mountain in the Pacific Northwest to raise awareness and funds for other women who have had a cancer diagnosis. In 2022, our incredible climbers tackled the iconic, 8,365-foot summit of Mount St. Helens.

Walking Group Pilot

Walking is a great, low-impact way to get moving and stay active! We are currently piloting moderate walks lasting about an hour. We aim to create local groups where you can enjoy the good company of others along with good exercise. Walking groups will run year-round.

Dragon Boating

If you are looking for a team activity that allows you to get away from it all without leaving the city, get a total body workout, and enjoy the company of a great group, dragon boating may be for you!

Intensity Meter

All of the activities on our Programs page are tagged with a meter to let you know how much effort may be involved. Be sure to check with your doctor that you are undertaking the right level of activity for your current health level.

LOW

Gentle exercise that doesn’t feel hard; it may not change your breathing pattern or make you sweat.

MODERATE

Moderate exercise may get your heart pumping but will generally allow you to carry on a normal conversation.

HIGH

High intensity activity may require endurance and is intense enough that normal conversation is not possible.
