Just Live Fun Run 2026

About the Event

The Just Live Fun Run 2026 returns to Cornwall, Prince Edward Island, Canada on August 23rd. This event is part of a series celebrating the journey and resilience of Michelle, who was diagnosed with Stage 4 EHE cancer in 2021. The race offers a 5K run for adults and a Kids K for younger runners.
The setting at the Cornwall Civic Center provides a vibrant atmosphere on race morning. Participants can expect to see familiar faces from past years as well as new ones coming together under the sun, surrounded by the lush greenery of Prince Edward Island's natural beauty. The event has grown over its four-year history, drawing participants who come not just for exercise but also to support Michelle and others affected by EHE cancer.
The Just Live Fun Run 2026 offers a course that winds through picturesque streets, starting and finishing at the Cornwall Civic Center. The route is marked with clear signage and includes notable features like gentle hills and flat stretches designed to challenge participants of all abilities. With an elevation gain of just over 15 meters throughout the race, runners will enjoy scenic views while navigating the terrain.
Chip timing services provided by Atlantic Chip Sport Timing ensure accurate results for both in-person events. The course offers a chip time option with four distances: 10km and 5km runs, as well as 1km walk/run options presented by Arsenaul and McDonald’s respectively. Each year, the route remains consistent to provide familiar conditions.
On race morning, temperatures will range from a minimum of 16 degrees Celsius to a maximum of 22.8 degrees Celsius, with an average humidity level of 76.8%. The winds are expected to be around 13-14 kilometers per hour, creating a pleasant but brisk pace for runners.

About Cornwall

Learn more about the host city, Cornwall.

Cornwall is a county in the southwest of England. Lying west of Devon from which it is separated by the River Tamar, Cornwall is one of the more isolated and distinctive parts of the United Kingdom but is also one of its most popular with holidaymakers. Its relatively warm climate, long coastline, amazing scenery, and diverse Celtic heritage go only part of the way to explaining its appeal.
