About the 'Goode Run

The 'Goode Run is a RUN (2K or 5K)

Runners can choose either a 2K run or 5K run. The 5K is chip timed (ChampionChip timing chips will be provided by our official timers Sportstats).
Departing from and ending at Osgoode's Stuart Holmes Arena, the 2K & 5K run on streets and paths throughout the Village of Osgoode. 

The 'Goode Run 2K is a WALK or RUN (and, we're dog friendly!)

Participants of the 2K can run or walk, jogging strollers are welcome and participants of ALL ages are out and about enjoying the 2K on race day. No 'running' experience is necessary! This one can be just for fun. Dogs (who are on a leash, get along well with other dogs and are cleaned up after) are welcome to join the 2K. Departing from and ending at Osgoode's Stuart Holmes Arena, the 2K will runs on streets throughout the Village of Osgoode.

The 'Goode Run is a COMMUNITY EVENT

Before and after the race, Race Central at Stuart Holmes Arena is a buzz of activity! There is music, a great crowd of community members, drinks and snacks; plus water and fruit station for the runners.

The 'Goode Run is a FUNDRAISER

The Osgoode Youth Association relies on funds raised at the 'Goode Run to exist. The 2022 'Goode Run raised almost $20,000 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!
