Event History

This year marks the 28th annual Run Inn the Woods. Since the inaugural run in 1998, our event has raised over $374,000 in donations. It is the longest running, independently managed, community-based fundraising event for the BC Cancer Foundation. We are so proud of what we have achieved.

Many of you are familiar with the story. Run Inn the Woods started as a memorial run for our good friend Barry Allcock who passed away in 1997 after a long battle with cancer. Barry loved to run but more importantly, he loved to run while in the company of good friends. It is in this spirit that we remember and celebrate with Run Inn the Woods.

Over the years the Run Inn has lost other friends to cancer. Friends who shared the same spirit as Barry. With fond memories we remember Carrie Beaman (2002), Mike Holyk (2012), Scott Jackson (2015), Devi Ralla (2017) and Jane Kirkham (2019).

We invite you to come out and share in the spirit of running with family and friends.
