The 2026 edition features a brand-new start & finish location with an updated course!

  • One Beer at the finish line

  • Professional timing with bib & chip

  • Well marked and accurately measured course

  • Swag bag

  • Podium prizes and cash prize for first places!

Kids Race

The Kids Race returns and remains FREE to participate. We welcome all kids to participate at our event; however, the age limit for the kids race is 11 years old. It’s not timed, is non-competitive and purely for the fun of all involved. The course will stay in the start/finish field with lots of cheer and support! For 2026 the Kids race will happen later than the 5km at 12:30pm, allowing for a full cheer section.

The new course will follow the winding path through the park, starting and finishing at the baseball field on the south side of the park. The course features less sidewalk, a switch to up and down the steep 6th St. hill, no double loop and a change of direction to make the course fresh the whole way!


Beer Run Race Series supports KidSport New West. They do a fantastic job at helping children participate in sports in our local community by providing grants to help cover the costs of registration fees for all kids aged 18 and under in New West to be able to play a season of sport.

Donations can be made during the registration process or directly from this page.

We recognise and respect that New Westminster is on the unceded and unsurrendered land of the Halkomelem speaking peoples. We acknowledge that colonialism has made invisible their histories and connections to the land.

    On May 31, 2026, Mikey’s Run returns to Burnaby Lake for its second annual event, building on the incredible success of its inaugural year.

    With the support of participants, volunteers, and donors, the first Mikey’s Run brought people together on the trails around Burnaby Lake and raised over $100,000 in support of mental health awareness and resources.

    Mikey’s Run exists to create space for connection, conversation, and support around mental health — an issue that affects individuals, families, and communities everywhere. The event honours the memory of Mike, an avid runner who trained regularly on these trails and who quietly struggled with mental health challenges.

    In 2026, participants will once again come together to Break the Silence, One Step at a Time. The event will again include a 10 km run, a 5 km run/walk, and a kids’ run, welcoming people of all ages and abilities. Whether you’re running, walking, or simply showing up, Mikey’s Run is an opportunity to move together, remember together, and continue making a meaningful difference.
