Running Room New Year's Run - Calgary 2026

The Running Room New Year's Run is a beloved annual event that inspires participants to kick off the year with a focus on health, fitness, and community. Established in 1984, the Running Room has become a cornerstone of the Canadian running community, and its New Year's Run is now a tradition in cities across the country. The 2026 Calgary edition, scheduled for Sunday, January 11, continues this legacy, inviting runners and walkers of all abilities to join in the celebration.

This event is more than just a race—it's a community gathering that supports a good cause. Proceeds benefit the Children's Miracle Network hospitals, ensuring that every step taken helps make a difference in the lives of children in need. With both in-person and virtual options, the event is accessible to everyone, whether you prefer to run with the crowd or at your own pace from anywhere in the world.
