Saskatoon Running Festival 2026
The Saskatoon Running Festival returns for its second annual edition at the Gordie Howe Sports Complex in Saskatoon. This multi-day event features a variety of running distances and weekend activities centered around the SMF Field.
The schedule begins on Saturday, April 25, with several free activities for registered participants, including a 30-minute shake-out run, educational seminars focused on running improvement, and a yoga session. The main racing events take place on Sunday, April 26, starting in waves from the SMF Field parking lot area.
Available distances include:
- 5 km run/walk
- 10 km run/walk
- 10 Mile run
- Kids Dash (Specifically for children under 12, held on Saturday)
Participants can select from different registration packages, including options that include a t-shirt or a hoodie. A "Green Bib" option is also available for those who prefer to decline promotional gear, which allows a larger portion of the registration fee to be donated to Prairie Run Crew, an Indigenous non-profit organization. Rather than a traditional medal, finishers receive a reusable metal cup featuring the event logo. For the Kids Dash, finishers receive their cup filled with candy. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
