Run for the Frontline at Canatara Park
Run for the Frontline is a community timed event on October 3, 2027, held at Canatara Beach and Park in Sarnia, Ontario. The event honors and supports First Responders and frontline workers and welcomes other community members to join and connect with those who provide essential services.
The course starts and finishes at the Terry Fox loop and includes scenic sections through Canatara Park. The 10 km route follows the waterfront past the casino before joining the 5 km portion through the park and Tarzanland. The event records official times for multiple distances.
Available distances:
- 1 km timed kids run, one lap of the Terry Fox loop, for children 12 and under
- 5 km scenic run and walk through Canatara Park and Tarzanland
- 10 km scenic run along the waterfront and through Canatara Park
A team competition called the Guardian Cup is open to teams of four on the 5 km distance; a team’s four finish times are averaged to determine the fastest team and have their name added to the trophy. Walking is allowed. Service animals and dogs, strollers, and wagons are permitted. Proceeds for 2027 are to be determined; prior years supported local mental health and veteran organizations. No refunds or bib transfers are offered, and participants registering after September 1 will not receive a shirt. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
