Bum Run Toronto 2027

Join the 2027 Toronto Bum Run on April 25th and support colon cancer awareness while enjoying a vibrant community atmosphere. This year marks the 16th edition of this unique charity race, which has raised over $2.2 million for various colon cancer organizations since its inception.
The event features two main categories: a Little Bums 500M run for children aged 12 and under starting at 7:40 AM, followed by the main 5K run/walk beginning at 8:00 AM. Participants will gather in Queen's Park where volunteers guide runners to their appropriate corral based on pace.
Water is available exclusively at the event site; no water stations are placed along the route. The course must be cleared by 9:15 AM due to road closures, with medical support provided throughout and a medic tent stationed near the finish line for post-race care.
Post-event refreshments await all participants as they celebrate their accomplishment in this heartwarming event that combines fitness with philanthropy. Registration includes swag items like a personalized fundraising page and a finisher medal for live runners, while virtual runners receive a digital certificate upon completion.
