Participating in the 1993 Sacred Run in New Zealand was truly meant to be for a group of young athletes from central Canada.

Left penniless and ticket-less after their trainer failed to show on the eve of the run, the youths were the recipients of a wave of financial support that floated them to New Zealand and back.

More than $14,000 were donated to the First Nations Running Club, with an additional $15,000 granted through the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development.
