Fredericton Marathon

Set in the Fredericton's beautiful Odell Park, the Flyin Feet Five Miler route takes you through the park's main trails where you will find musicians along the course to set a beat for your feet. Technical difficulty is low but watch out for the last big hill at mile 4 - it's a doozy!

Hey Kids! Join other kids in Ukraine, Kurdistan & Uganda by running the 1K Fun Run - complete with bubbles! There will be finisher badges created by FHS students, a top fundraising prize, and some entertainment with Dragonmire Petting Zoo.

The event will wrap up with prizes for top male/female finishers, top fundraiser, door prizes, event swag, and international foods.

A Race Measured in Daylight

At dawn, runners begin their sunlit journey onto a gently winding 5 km loop through the Killarney Lake trails. The hours shift from cool morning to bright afternoon to amber evening, and the only clock that matters is the sky above the trees. Run one loop or run all day—when sunset finally arrives, the runner with the most loops wins.

The Sundial Circuit is built to be welcoming and low-stress. A central aid station at Killarney Lake Lodge will be stocked all day with water, electrolytes, and simple snacks, and runners can take as much time as they like between laps. Friends and family are welcome to cheer, crew, or even join you for a loop. Track your own pace, settle into a rhythm, and stop whenever the day feels complete. When the sun touches the horizon the course closes, results are tallied, and we celebrate a long day shared on the trails.

Food & Drink

We will be providing food and hydration throughout the event. Tables stocked with snacks, and coolers filled with water and electrolyte drinks will be located at the main start/finish area near the Killarney Lake Rotary building.

This is a cupless race, so please bring your own reusable cup or bottle.

Directions & Parking

Follow Saint Mary's street or Brookside drive out to the roundabout, where you will turn into the Killarney Lake Rotary Centennial Lodge. There should be lots of parking, and the start line should be within view of the parking lot.

Kicking PancreAS™ – Fredericton, New Brunswick

Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest cancers—but together, we can make a difference.

About the Event

Kicking PancreAS 2026 is a fun, inclusive 5K for all levels and abilities—whether you choose to walk or run, set a personal goal and take it at your own pace.

Returning to New Brunswick, we’re building on an incredible 2025, where we saw 139 participants and just over $8,000.00 in donations. This year, we’re aiming even higher! Our goals are:

We are counting on participants to invite friends, family, and colleagues to join the movement. Together, we can make 2026 our most impactful year yet, in New Brunswick.
