Big Pirate Run

The Big Pirate Run is a family-friendly running event at Garry Point Park in Richmond, BC. In its fourth year, it offers 1–3 km Little Pirate Run plus 5 km, 10 km, 15 km, and 21.1 km half marathon distances along The West Dyke and Middle Arm Trails. The scenic course runs north, with views of Terra Nova Park, the Richmond Olympic Oval, and occasionally planes landing at YVR, on mainly flat gravel and paved paths.

Runners receive a pirate-themed bib, a costume item, and a wooden finishers medal; longer distances are chip-timed. Pet- and stroller-friendly, with a charity partner: Richmond Food Bank. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
