Grounded in reflection, gratitude, and service. It is important to us that our participants continue to recall why they are training, why they are fundraising and why participate in our event – rain, snow or shine.
Participants are encouraged to connect to their personal “why” – whether honouring a loved one, supporting mental health, or showing community solidarity.
The 2026 theme of the run represents:
- Remembrance and sacrifice
- Resilience and renewal
- Honor and gratitude
Together, these elements reflect the service and strength of Canada’s military and first responder communities.
There are many ways to get involved. Whether you walk, run, fundraise, cheer or volunteer, we’re all here for a reason!
