Run Calgary

PSA: In light of recent events in Fish Creek Park, Run Calgary is reminding our communty to look after one another.

Everyone deserves to feel safe moving through public spaces, whether they’re training for a marathon, walking a dog, commuting, or simply enjoying a walk in the park. The solution can’t only be ‘be more careful.’ It also requires community vigilance, investment in safe infrastructure, responsive systems, and a culture where people look out for one another.

Running should feel freeing, not frightening. We share practical safety reminders while also recognizing that many people, especially women, are navigating barriers to participation that others never have to consider. Safety and inclusion go hand in hand.

PSA ahead of Sunday's race! Runners without bibs are not allowed on-course ⚠️

Banditing impacts the safety and experience for registered participants - from medical support, to course capacities, to hydration and finisher resources.

We encourage participants to register early for next year's event, and upcoming races like the Servus Calgary Marathon!

We’re officially calling tomorrow Run Calgary Shirt Day 👀 (you know the ones, with Run Calgary splashed across the back)

The forecast is finally giving spring, so let’s celebrate and make it feel like race season.

If you’ve ever participated in a Run Calgary race (or volunteered), you’re part of this community and tomorrow is your chance to represent it. Throw on your favourite Run Calgary race or volunteer shirt and wear it wherever you go. On your run, on your walk, to work, on the pathways, grabbing a coffee, wherever!

If enough of us show up, we might just take over the city and have people asking… “what’s Run Calgary up to?”

Snap a photo of you wearing a shirt (or if you spot one) and tag us or send it our way via DM/email — we’ll be resharing all day!

Let’s see how many Run Calgary shirts we can get out there, in Calgary and beyond! 👟
