About the race

RememberRun 2026 is the 18th annual running event held at Riverside Park, King Street West, Cambridge, Ontario on November 7, 2026. The event offers two distances:

  • 5 km
  • 1.1 km fun run

The 5 km course is certified by Athletics Canada and the event is sanctioned by Athletics Ontario. The route uses two loops through Riverside Park. The first loop is a 1.1 km paved circuit where runners keep to the left. The 5 km distance continues with a second loop that includes an out-and-back trail section with gravel, wooden boardwalk, and grass; on that loop runners keep to the right and follow a counterclockwise turn. Two water stations are provided, one at the start/finish and another around the 2.4/3.6 km marks.

Every finisher in both distances receives a finisher medal. Participants may purchase a technical t-shirt during registration while supplies last, and stickers are available at kit pickup on a first-come, first-served basis. The 2026 t-shirt design is noted as forthcoming late summer 2026. Strollers and their occupants are free but must be registered and accompanied by a participant in a different sub-event. Refunds are not available; deferrals and transfers follow the event waiver.

Pledges support The Preston Legion Poppy Fund, with CA$1,074.83 raised toward a CA$5,000 goal. Post-race food and presentations take place at Riverside Park. A moment of silence, live singing of the national anthem, and a piper precede the race start. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
