About the Event

Welcome spring with a true Toronto running tradition. The Beneva Spring Run-Off, organized by Canada Running Series, is a beloved community race taking place on Saturday, 4 April 2026 in Toronto's scenic High Park. Offering an 8K and a 5K race—plus a kids' event—this annual fixture challenges runners with its famous "Kill The Hill" climb, rewarding them with a festive post-race pancake breakfast and a vibrant community atmosphere. With a virtual race option available throughout April, it's a perfect early-season goal to shake off the winter and run through the park's beautiful cherry blossoms. More than just a race, it's a celebration of the local running community and the arrival of warmer weather in the city.
