About the race
The PUMA Toronto Women’s Fall 8K/5K takes place on Saturday, October 3, 2026, at 1132 Leslie Street in Toronto and marks the end of the Toronto Women’s Run Series 18th season.
Distances:
- 8K
- 5K
The course follows paved paths through the Toronto park system and is described as running through full autumn colours. The event offers both an in-person race and a virtual option that runs from October 3 to October 17, 2026; virtual participants may complete the distance on their own timing and will have their race kit shipped to their door.
All participants receive a PUMA running hat and an exclusive finisher medal, and in-person participants have access to a post-race party. Runners who complete all three races in the series in a single year are eligible to receive a PUMA Toronto Women’s Run Series finisher prize.
Route information is available via a RacePoint interactive map and printable route PDFs for the 8K and 5K. The series identifies itself as an inclusive, supportive community encouraging women to run. The Fall 8K/5K continues the series’ long-term fundraising partnership with the Pediatric Oncology Group of Ontario POGO, with a 2026 fundraising goal of $70,000 and more than $745,000 raised to date through participant fundraising.
