We’re back! Step Up for Mental Health returns in 2022 with the option to choose between a live event or participating virtually.
**Step Up is SOLDOUT! Thank you for supporting mental health. Watch your email in early September for the event guide with details about package pickup and more.
Register to run/walk 5K or 10K along the beautiful Saskatoon river valley on Sept. 24, OR complete the virtual event wherever you are. No matter which option you choose, you’ll get our amazing swag package of:
- Step Up technical shirt*
- Step Up bunnyhug
- Step Up water bottle*
- Custom medal
(*NOTE: The student registration includes the bunnyhug and medal only)
Please note that registration fees increase the closer we get to September (see below), so register early for best value.
In addition to the best swag around, you’ll experience the fun and supportive Step Up atmosphere brimming with live entertainment.
As always, 100% of your registration fee – plus a matching amount from Cameco – supports the Cameco Fund for Mental Health, administered by the Saskatoon Community Foundation. In just three years, you’ve helped raise more than $1.2 million to assist mental health projects and programs in dozens of Saskatchewan communities.
Ontario Residents: We are exploring options to host an October run/walk in Ontario. All funds raised by Ontario residents will contribute to the existing Cameco Fund for Mental Health in Northumberland County.
After two years of pandemic challenges, supporting mental health is more important than ever, so we hope you’ll join us in making a difference. Start your Step Up journey today!
Step Up is powered by Cameco in partnership with Brainsport and Saskatoon Community Foundation.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
I’m not comfortable participating in the live event. Can I still register?
Yes. The 2022 run/walk includes a virtual option so we encourage you to participate in your home community and submit your results according to instructions that will be emailed to all registered participants. Please note that registration is limited to Canada and US participants due to high international shipping costs.
Will there be an Ontario run/walk in 2022?
We are exploring options to host an October run/walk in Ontario. All funds raised from Ontario participants will contribute to the existing Cameco Fund for Mental Health in Northumberland County. For updates on the Ontario event please follow Cameco Ontario's social media channels:

How do I get my swag?
- If you register for the live event Sept. 24 in Saskatoon, you must pick up your race package during the race expo Sept. 22-23 at Cameco (2121 – 11th St. W, Saskatoon). Hours are 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. both days. Please note that there will be no race-day pickup. If you miss the expo, you will not have another opportunity to pick up your swag.
- If you register for the virtual event, your package will be mailed to you the week of Sept. 12. Please note that the package pickup is for participants in the live event only. Packages for virtual participants will not be available.
What does the $25 student registration include?
For $25, students (age 18-and-under) receive the bunnyhug and medal. Anyone who wishes to receive the full swag package (with bunnyhug, shirt, water bottle and medal) is welcome to sign up at the adult price point ($50 for early-bird; progressively increasing to $80 by September).
My child is 5-and-under. Do I have to register them even though their participation is free?
No. Children 5-and-under are welcome to join you on the course and there’s no need to register them. However, if you wish to receive a bunnyhug for them, they must be registered.
How does the virtual event work?
- You choose your own starting line, whether it's a treadmill or an outdoor route in your community. (Please note that registration is limited to Canada and US participants due to high international shipping costs.)
- Complete your race distance (5K or 10K) between Sept. 19-25, upload your finishing time through Race Roster. (Watch for upload instructions closer to the event.)
