Tillsonburg Running with the Bulls 2026

Tillsonburg Running with the Bulls is a community road race in Tillsonburg, Ontario, built around local fundraising for families affected by cancer. The event began with a personal connection to cancer and has grown into a town-wide day that channels proceeds back into the community.
