Our Mission
In celebration of the 81st Anniversary of Korean Liberation Day, participating teams will work together to complete 81.5 km.
More important than individual results is the opportunity to run together, support one another, and reflect on the meaning of liberation and freedom.
As we remember the sacrifices and courage of those who secured Korea's independence 81 years ago, we come together to run, encourage, and achieve this goal as one team.
This clinic will help prepare you for both the Hallow’s Eve and The Phantom Run race events. You will run with experienced, friendly clinic leaders and who will share their skills. The clinic will cover trail running technique, gear, hydration, navigation, safety, trail food, trail etiquette, and more.

Mondays Run Club started in April 2021 with an invitation to connection, not competition. A 5K along the Vancouver seawall and a beer after, no timers, no pressure, just people craving belonging. Founded on the belief that movement, belonging, and the courage to show up matter most, especially when life feels heavy, Mondays Run Club has grown to more than 100 runners gathering every Monday. From first-timers to trail runners, they are held together by warmth, consistency, and leaders who genuinely care. Every Monday at 5:30 PM, seven pace groups set off from somewhere new in Vancouver. The route changes, but the welcome never does.
What began as a joke between friends living near Fraser Street became Vancouver's most community-driven run club. Founded in November 2013 by Michelle, Jesse, Cody, and Kat, Fraser Street Run Club has grown to more than 100 runners who believe in keeping it social, sustainable, and open to everyone. The crew attracts people of all levels who love trails, city streets, and the conversations that happen along the way. Every Friday at 7 PM from East 17th Ave and Tuesdays at the Eric Hamber Track, the same philosophy guides them: get people moving and keep the community strong.
