About the Event

Immerse yourself in the vibrant community spirit of the Cowichan Valley this autumn by signing up for the 33rd annual Run and Walk Clinic. This seven-week program, beginning on September 15, 2026, meets every Tuesday evening at 6 pm until October 27, 2026.
The clinic is a fundraising initiative for the Cowichan Sportsplex, offering participants three distinct groups tailored to various fitness levels: FitWalk for those looking to enhance their walking routine, Learn to Run for beginners aiming to transition into running, and advanced training sessions for experienced runners preparing for the 5K and 10K distances.
Throughout the clinic, you'll be coached by knowledgeable instructors who provide guidance on pacing, technique, nutrition, and injury prevention. The program culminates with a celebratory run at the Cowichan Autumn Classic on October 18, where participants can choose from 5K or 10K races, as well as enjoy engaging activities for kids.
Join this supportive community of runners and walkers to improve your fitness while contributing to local sports facilities. The clinic's final session includes a special race day event that will leave you feeling accomplished and connected with fellow enthusiasts in the picturesque Cowichan Valley.
The autumn air fills the streets during the Cowichan Autumn Classic, where participants are greeted by stunning fall foliage as they navigate scenic routes through town. Whether you're just starting out or looking to build endurance for longer distances, this clinic offers a welcoming and encouraging environment to achieve your goals.
