The 2025 Run
The 2025 Vancouver Sun Run takes place on Sunday, April 27, 2025 at 9:00am throughout Downtown Vancouve and is known as Canada’s largest and most beautiful 10 kilometre road race.
The run is open to international elite competitors, recreational runners, joggers and walkers, wheelchair competitors, corporate and recreational teams, schools, youth, and children.
The Vancouver Sun Run is the 3rd largest timed 10km in North America.
If you prefer a shorter course than the 10km, or if you’d like to get the whole family out together, then the EVA Air 2.5km Mini Sun Run, past Science World, is a great option.
