4th Annual KidSport Leduc & County Loop the Lake

The KidSport Leduc & County Loop the Lake is a family-oriented charitable event returning for its 4th year on Saturday, May 9, 2026. Staged at the picturesque Telford Park, the event raises funds for KidSport, a national non-profit organization that provides financial assistance for registration fees and equipment to children facing financial barriers. The goal is to ensure that all local children have the opportunity to participate in organized sports. The courses take participants along the scenic shores of Telford Lake on fully paved trails, offering a flat and accessible route suitable for runners, walkers, and families with strollers.

Leduc is a city in Alberta, Canada, located approximately 33 kilometers south of Edmonton, with a population of approximately 34,000 residents. The city is a major transportation hub due to its proximity to the Edmonton International Airport. The demographic profile is primarily European (Non-Indigenous) at approximately 82.3%, followed by Indigenous peoples at 5.2% and a growing visible minority population of 12.5%, including South Asian and Filipino communities. The median household income in Leduc is roughly $102,000 CAD. Geographically, the city is characterized by its parkland setting, with Telford Lake serving as a central recreational feature. The race trails wind through the William F. Lede Park area, offering a mix of lakeside views and managed green spaces.

Registration for the 2026 event is open through Race Roster, with children under 5 participating for free. To encourage community involvement, local sports organizations are invited to sign up as groups. It is important to note that the event has a "no refund" policy and will proceed regardless of weather conditions, unless the trail is deemed unsafe by 7:30 AM on race morning.
