Run for Edmonton 2026

The Run for Edmonton is set to energize the city once again with its second edition, organized by the Ahmadiyya Muslim Elder Association (Majlis Ansarullah), an auxiliary of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama'at. This 5 km run, jog and walk event aims to unite members of the vibrant Edmonton community in support of local initiatives that foster a better quality of life for all residents.
This year’s race is dedicated to raising funds for two vital causes: Edmonton's Food Bank and Alberta Council of Women's Shelters. Participants will not only enjoy the scenic routes through Edmonton but also contribute positively to their city, making an impact on those in need within the community.
The event promises a day filled with camaraderie as runners of all ages and abilities come together for a common goal. The race route winds through some of Edmonton’s most iconic neighborhoods, offering participants breathtaking views and an opportunity to experience the heart of this rapidly growing city firsthand.
As you cross the finish line, you’ll feel not only a sense of personal achievement but also pride in contributing to initiatives that support local families struggling with food insecurity or seeking shelter. The Run for Edmonton is more than just a race; it’s a celebration of community spirit and collective effort towards making Edmonton an even better place to live.
Be sure to invite your friends, family, and neighbors to join this meaningful event. Together, you can build a stronger community through partnership, teamwork, and shared commitment.
