#LaurierLoop

Online Registration and Online Donations have now closed. You can still register in person at the dates and times listed below under Registration Options, or make a Donation on race day.

The Laurier Loop is fun and challenging running event held at Wilfrid Laurier University. The loop itself is a certified 2.5 KM loop around the main campus.

How many loops will you run?

Choose to run the circuit 1, 2, or 4 times for a 2.5k, 5k, or 10k run, OR round up your friends and compete in the 4x2.5k relay. The looped nature of this race makes it exciting to watch and participate in, and very spectator friendly.

It is our objective to organize a fun, safe, and healthy athletic event for citizens of the Waterloo region and beyond, while maintaining a community responsibility to local charitable organizations and their causes. This event is organized in partnership with the Sun Life Financial Centre for Physically Active Communities and the Kinesiology KP 344 class.
