Virtual: 5 - 26 September 2025
In-Person: Sunday September 21 2025
Canada Army Run is more than just a race. It's about Canadians and the Canadian Armed Forces joining together in the spirit of camaraderie and community. It’s a chance for the troops to extend the military esprit de corps to Canadians and to thank them for their support. And, it’s an opportunity for Canadians to say thanks to the men and women who serve them in so many ways at home and abroad. Joins us in this year's edition of Canada Army Run.

This includes providing financial assistance to promote family resiliency and to support the recovery, rehabilitation, and reintegration of members with a physical and/or mental illness or injury.
On behalf of our men and women in uniform – who do so much to keep us safe at home and abroad – THANK YOU for Standing With Us!
