About the race
The We Got Your 6-KM event takes place on Saturday, October 3, 2026 in Central Park, Spruce Grove, Alberta. The event is presented by the Alberta First Responders Association and runs in a run, walk, and ruck format to raise awareness and funding for first responder mental health and operational stress injuries.
Participants can choose from three options: a timed, scenic 6 KM run through Spruce Grove’s trail network; a walk welcoming families, strollers, and dogs; or a ruck where participants carry a weighted backpack, tactical rucksack, or turnout gear to symbolize the burdens carried by frontline personnel.
Proceeds support AFRA’s work toward the 1st Health Mobile Support Unit, a mobile psychological crisis triage space for rural frontline members, and help bring free training to first responders across Alberta. Running Room is listed as an official supporter and serves as the race package pickup location the day before the event at the Rabbit Hill store in Edmonton, 5029 Mullen Road.
Central Park will host a Wellness Village with frontline support resources, interactive sponsor activations and recovery stations, and local food and entertainment. The event includes on-site support resources for participants and a closing ceremony with an impact presentation. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
