The Big Superhero Run
Join us for the return of the Big Superhero Run. This themed fun run tours picturesque Middle Arm Trail. Starting at the Olympic Oval, the course winds its way along trails beside the water with views of the mountains and you may even catch flights taking off and landing at YVR!
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).
