The 2026 'Goode Run: Saturday, May 9
Online registration is CLOSED
Walk up registration is available Friday May 9, 6 pm - 8 pm & Saturday May 10, 7 am - 9 am
in the Fred Alexander Room at the Stuart Holmes Arena.
Join us for a great morning of community spirit at the 2026 ‘Goode Run! Join the 'Goode Run – Walk or Run the 2K, 5K, or Both!
The 'Goode Run is a fun, community-focused event open to all ages and fitness levels. Choose to walk or run the 2K, 5K — or take on both with the return of our directors challenge! Both routes start and finish at Osgoode’s Stuart Holmes Arena and follow scenic, multi-surface paths through Osgoode Village.
Dog-Friendly Event
Dogs are welcome to join the fun in the 2K — bring your furry friend along for the run!
Support a Great Cause
The 'Goode Run is the Osgoode Youth Association’s (O-YA) largest annual fundraiser. In 2025, the event raised over $30,000 to support local youth programs. O-YA relies on the funds raised at this event to operate — and because the run is entirely volunteer-organized, 100% of proceeds go directly to O-YA. That’s a race you can truly feel good about!

When is the 'goode Run?
The 'Goode Run is always the 2nd Saturday in May. That means this year it will be on Saturday May 9, 2026
What is the 'Goode Run?
You can run or walk the 2K or 5K or do both! Departing from and ending at Osgoode's Stuart Holmes Arena; the 2K & 5K are multi-surface runs through Osgoode Village. The 'Goode Run is the biggest fundraiser of the year for the Osgoode Youth Association (O-YA). The Osgoode Youth Association relies on funds raised at the 'Goode Run to exist. The 2025 'Goode Run raised over $30,000 for O-YA! The 'Goode Run is volunteer organized and led, which means 100% of the proceeds go right back into O-YA. This is very unique in the 'fundraising run' world. It's a run you can feel EXTRA good about!
