Run for Mom aims to be a high quality running event in Manitoba. Our purpose is to build and support the running community, promote healthy lifestyle choices for individuals and families, and support local charities.
Now in its fifth year, Run for Mom has established itself as one of the best running events in Manitoba with over 500 participants in 2011. As runners ourselves, our team of volunteers has participated in a large number of running events and are committed to bringing a high quality event into our local area. Every aspect of our race has been looked at to try and ensure that everyone has the best experience possible. We are grateful to our volunteers who help pull this event off.
We have events for all abilities and ages. Register today for either the 5KM Run/Walk, 10KM Run, Team Race, or Kids Run.
Please join us on Mother's Day, Sunday, May 13, 2012.
Once again proceeds from the entry fees will ge given to Anna's House. To date we have donated over $16,000 to this cause.
All kids ages 3-6 will run their own race (approx. 300 yards) at 2:30 pm. Each participant will receive a bib number and a finisher prize. The cost is $5.

Volunteers make Run For Mom happen.
If you want to give something back to the running community, support a friend or family member, or just want to be outside and enjoy the race, come and volunteer! All our volunteers receive an event t-shirt and post race food.
Volunteers help with many tasks: provide drinks to participants at water stations/direct participants along the course/direct traffic at course intersections/help at the finish line.
Time commitment is approx 2:30 pm–4:30 pm on Mother's Day.
We ask that all participants respect and appreciate our volunteers because without them there would be no race.
Use the "register" link and follow the volunteer link on the Running Room website (above the Run for Mom logo).
