Days until The Big Easter Run...

Overview

Join us for the 7th annual Big Easter Run.

This holiday themed fun run tours picturesque Jericho Beach Park.
Starting near the waterfront, the course winds its way along trails surrounded by spring blooms before looping onto the beach-side path, with unbeatable views of the North Shore and the Vancouver skyline. You may even spot a Jericho Bunny!
With mild inclines, a mixture of gravel and trail pathways, everyone is assured a beautiful and accessible run, jog or walk. The route is suitable for all ages and abilities. Leashed dogs and strollers welcome (both please start in final wave; strollers ensure you have wheels suitable for unpaved trails)
