Cure for the BRRR 2026

Cure for the BRRR 2026

Come run your first race of the year!

This race is a friendly low-key event where you can run the distance you want! We know the January weather in Regina is unpredictable, so we are flexible about how far your run is. You have six hours to run either one loop around Wascana Lake (4 km), a half-marathon, a marathon, or whatever distance you can fit in within 6 hours. You will earn your fabulous one-of-a-kind polar bear medal and polar bear cookie if you complete even one lap. If you run a distance of 42.2 km or longer, you'll earn an additional swag item!

January weather can be interesting to say the least. Please dress warmer than you feel is needed as there always is the option to remove layers, take a break and warm up in your vehicle. This is a self supported event - bring whatever dietary needs, gear or food you might need for the day. All runners must self record their results on their watch. Please report to the race director with your final distance and time for your medal and post race goodie bag. BINS WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR DRY FOOD AND CAN DONATIONS AS WELL AS WARM CLOTHING, GLOVES AND SOCKS TO OUR CHARITY AND SHELTER OF CHOICE.
