Survivorfest Running Event : Sherwood Park, Alberta
Survivorfest Running Event takes place June 12 to 14, 2026 in Sherwood Park on Treaty Six Territory and the homeland of the Métis Nation of Alberta Regions Two and Four. The event offers timed 6 hour, 12 hour and 24 hour races, kids races, and relay options. It will host the 2026 Canadian 24 hour National Championships.
Since 2024 both course options hold IAU Bronze Label certification. Loop A is a 400 m track using the four inside lanes and is capped at 70 athletes. Loop B is a 1.69 km mixed road and track loop using the three outer lanes. Podiums and prizes are provided equally across three gender categories.
The course is flat, fast, and low elevation. Direction changes occur periodically for long-distance competitors. A fully stocked aid station operates throughout the event and the schedule includes over 18 hours of music. The event is livestreamed on the Survivorfest YouTube channel.
All event profits are donated to the Saffron Centre to support school programs that prevent sexual violence; donations since 2019 total over $37,000. The event notes Trail Sisters approval and accepts athletes in a Non-Binary category, with declared gender accepted without documentation.
