Conference fun runs are un-timed group runs. Our local runners guide groups of 10 – 15 people on a number of scenic, pre-planned, Vancouver running routes.
Groups depart from and return to one central location at the same time (typically your hotel or conference centre).
All of our conference fun runs feature:
Pre-Event
We work with you to estimate the number of fun run participants, then create running routes based on different paces. Once routes have been created we create a private sign up page that allows your participants to easily view the routes and sign up to the event.
Run Day
On the day of the run all your members have to do is show up to the run start/finish! We quickly assign runners to their groups, take them out on the run, and give out a few high fives before they carry on with their day.
We are able to accommodate a wide range of group sizes, and our team leaders always provide an enjoyable pace, based on the desired speed of each group.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many runners can you accommodate?
We’re able to handle almost any group size, from a few people to a few hundred people! Contact us with more information about your group and we can work to put something together that will meet your needs!
What paces should we expect?
We base the paces that we offer around the needs of your group and are able to provide everything from 4 minute/kilometre speed demons to casual walking groups.
Where do we run?
Our routes depend on group sizes, and the start/finish location of the run. Whenever possible we try to feature some classic Vancouver waterfront routes which often include areas of Stanley Park, Coal Harbour, Yaletown, and False Creek.
How much advance notice do you need?
With larger group runs the more notice that we can have the better. Contact us and we can start getting to work!
Vancouver Run Tours was created because we love showing off the city of Vancouver, and (not surprisingly) we love to run!
As runners ourselves we understand how challenging it can be to find great routes in a new city, how much of an impact simply having a great training partner can make when you’re away from home, or how easily big group run can bring people together!
We’re passionate about what we do, and always excited to meet other runners.
