Weekend FunRun will be held on weekend mornings from 8am-11am, mostly during the spring and autumn months.

Although Weekend FunRun is a “team only” event, in addition to registering as a Company team, you can also register as either a Social team (friends, family members, gym buddies, work associates etc) or as a Club team. (running club, book club, meet up group, neighborhood association etc). Thus, there are much broader team participation opportunities. In addition, individuals are welcome to participate in all Weekend FunRun events as part of the Weekend FunRun team.

Weekend FunRun aims to be a GREAT fundraising platform for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Whereas Corporate FunRun is much more of a team builder, a workplace fitness event and after work socialization opportunity, the charity piece is an integral component of all Weekend FunRun events. In addition to donating a percentage of race revenue directly to the local Make-A-Wish Foundation at the end of each Weekend FunRun event, we encourage all teams and team members to voluntarily fundraise for Make-A-Wish. Fundraising teams will be provided with a link to Make-A-Wish’s giving platform, and of course, 100% of all monies raised by our teams and team members goes directly to Make-A-Wish. We will be handing out a trophy to each event’s largest fundraising team during the awards ceremony. A Make-A-Wish representative will reach out to all interested fundraising teams and will be on-site during race morning whenever possible.

At Weekend FunRun, the awards categories will be a bit broader than at CFR Weekday. We will have plaques both for the fastest male and female individuals, as well as for the fastest male and female company, social and club teams. Trophies will be handed out to the largest team, the team with the best tee shirt and the best fundraising team.
