About the Event

Run Without Borders is an inspiring charity run/walk that takes place through Edmonton's scenic River Valley. Organized by medical students from the University of Alberta, this event supports Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières and offers both 5-km and 10-km routes for runners and walkers alike.
Participants can enjoy a flat course along picturesque trails lined with trees and offering views of the river. The race is sponsored by local businesses such as Running Room, The Brick, the University of Alberta Medical Students' Association, and Continental Treat Fine Bistro, ensuring that all proceeds directly benefit those in need through Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières.
Race kit pickup will take place on Friday, October 16 from 4 to 7 PM at the Running Room location (8537 109 St NW, Edmonton, AB). This early pick-up ensures a smooth and stress-free race day experience. For any questions or inquiries, please contact [email protected].
Join this meaningful event where every step you take contributes to making a difference in communities around the world.
