2026 Terry Fox Run in Stanley Park, Vancouver, Canada
The Terry Fox Run is an iconic, non-competitive annual charity walk and run event held at Ceperley Park in Stanley Park.
Dedicated to raising critical funds for global cancer research in memory of Canadian hero Terry Fox and his historic Marathon of Hope, the event offers both a **3km** short course and a full **10km** circuit.
Participants can cross the finish line entirely at their own pace. Most families and walkers naturally lean toward the 3km loops, while runners challenge themselves across either distance. Complimentary light snacks and refreshments are traditionally laid out for all registered participants at the conclusion of the routes.

Frequently Asked Questions
The event structure is split cleanly into two separate route paths: a short 3km course and a full 10km circuit. Participants do not need to register for a specific tier ahead of time; you can choose which route path to map out when the mass start launches on Sunday morning.
- The 3km Route: Launches from the staging arches at Ceperley Park, tracks around the scenic marsh paths enveloping Lost Lagoon, and loops directly back to the main Ceperley fields area.
- The 10km Route: Launches from Ceperley Park, cuts through the interior trails of Ceperley Meadow, tracks completely around the outer perimeter of the park via the concrete Stanley Park Seawall path, and finishes back at the Ceperley celebration hub.
