A memorial is being planned for a Halifax woman who was hit by an alleged impaired driver while jogging in Hamilton, Ont. last week.
Friends said Zoë Nudell was an inspiration to hundreds of kids who went through the Nova Scotia Sea School.

She was just 13 years old, but quickly became an important part of his life.
"At the sea school I'm, in theory, her teacher, but it didn't take long for that role reversal to happen. And I really felt as if one of the things I've lost now is there's so much more I could have learned from Zoe," he said.
Nudell died Thursday, a day after police said she was hit by an impaired driver, and just two weeks after moving to Ontario. She was jogging on a corner Hamilton runners have long said needs better lighting and signs.
Nudell was an artist, a volunteer at the urban farm and a part of Halifax's Shambhala community.
Her friend Maggy Burns said she was an inspiration to hundreds of kids who attended the sea school over the years.
"Mostly right now I remember that I got a chance to say goodbye to her because she was leaving the city so I got a chance to say goodbye and a chance to hear her excitement about the next phase in her life," she said.
A memorial is planned for Tuesday night.
