About the event

On Sunday, February 14, 2027, runners will gather at University Stadium in Waterloo, Ontario for the 29th annual Re-Fridgee-Eighter. This frosty favorite offers an unpredictable weather scenario that adds to its charm and excitement, whether it’s a crisp winter day or something more extreme.
The race features two distances: an 8-mile event starting at 9:00 a.m., followed by a shorter but equally spirited 1.88K fun run beginning at 9:55 a.m. Both races cater to runners with varying goals, whether they are training for longer events like half marathons or full marathons scheduled later in the year.
University Stadium provides an ideal setting, with its well-maintained track and facilities making it perfect for both competitive racing and casual participation. The event attracts a diverse group of athletes who come together to enjoy the camaraderie and challenge that this winter race offers.
Participants can explore historical results and records at [results.runwaterloo.com](http://results.runwaterloo.com) to see how they stack up against past performances and to get inspired by previous champions. The registration process includes a waiver outlining deferral and transfer policies, ensuring flexibility for those who need it. For any questions or clarifications regarding the registration policy, participants can reach out via email at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]).
The Re-Fridgee-Eighter promises an engaging day of running amidst a vibrant community atmosphere, making it a must-attend event for runners looking to kick off their training season or simply enjoy the thrill of competition in one of Canada’s coldest months.
