Bridget's Run 2026

Bridget's Run returns Saturday, October 17, 2026 at Centennial Beach Park in Barrie, the ninth annual community walk and run for Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. The event supports Bridget's Bunnies Pregnancy and Infant Loss Support, bringing families together to remember babies lost in pregnancy or infancy.

Choose a 1K or 5K in person at 10:00 a.m., or register as a virtual participant from anywhere. For more Barrie charity runs and road races in Barrie, it's an October remembrance fundraiser on the waterfront.

The in-person route starts at Centennial Beach Park on Lakeshore Drive. The 5K follows a modified waterfront path (slightly extended past South Shore due to construction); the 1K Bunny Hop uses a shorter lakeshore loop. Virtual participants complete their chosen distance at any location on October 17.
