Gingerbread Run 2025

Get ready to chase the Gingerbread Man during Saskatoon’s iconic fun run.

The annual Gingerbread Run will happen on Sunday, November 23^rd with the start/finish line at the YWCA Saskatoon parking lot.

Registration opens this Friday (October 3) at 10 a.m.

Created by Brainsport, the Gingerbread Run is a 5K fun run for the entire family. With the course on the paved Meewasin Trail, we welcome people of all ages – with strollers and carriages (attached to runners) allowed.

Following tradition, there will be three Gingerbread Men (in full costume) running on the course!

For just $59.50 (plus tax and Race Roster fees) all runners/walkers receive:

• Coveted Gingerbread Run bunnyhug
• Race bib
• Custom medal at the finish line
• Gingerbread cookies after the run

With Race Roster fees, the price is $66.56.

All net proceeds are donated to the YWCA Saskatoon, which helps women and children in need. We encourage donations during the registration process, with all donations receiving a 100% charitable tax receipt.
