Paul Wawryko Memorial Run
This memorial run in Winnipeg, Manitoba, is scheduled for September 19, 2026, and honors a late colleague who passed away in December 2023. The event combines in-person and virtual participation and is organized to raise funds for educational and charitable purposes.
Available formats include:
- 5 km in person
- 2 km in person
- 2 km or 5 km virtual
In-person registration includes a t-shirt, bib, timing and a medal. The virtual category includes shipment of the event t-shirt and medal and carries an additional fee to cover shipping. A "Friends of the Run" registration is offered for supporters who do not require a t-shirt, bib or medal but may attend the post-race gathering.
Proceeds are directed to an annual scholarship for the department of Pathology where the late colleague worked and had been recognized for teaching. Remaining funds will be donated to various causes important to the individual. A post-race reception is planned and will feature a beer brewed specifically for the event. The event description emphasizes fundraising, community gathering and commemoration rather than competition. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
