Canada Running Day is a day for Canadians to celebrate running. Athletics Canada is pleased to join our neighbours to the south in celebration of National Running Day, Wednesday June 3, promoting running as a healthy and accessible form of exercise.
“Canada Running Day is a time to celebrate the sport of running. Participation is an important pillar of the Athletics Canada mandate; the Canadian road running community is the foundation of this pillar. Athletics Canada and our partner races are excited to celebrate with runners getting together in every province and territory,” said Athletics Canada CEO Rob Guy.
Canadian Running Magazine will celebrate Canada Running Day by highlighting your stories, and giving away prizes. This event allows runners of all stripes, beginner, recreational, competitive and elite to celebrate the sport and build connection and community. Canada Running Day is meant to celebrate the reasons and people that make a running a special part of their lives.
