Run with a Recruiter - Calgary Police Service - Westwinds Campus

On October 1st, 2026, the Community Policing Solutions (CPS) organization invites individuals interested in public service to participate in an engaging day of fitness and dialogue. The event combines physical activity with opportunities for career exploration within law enforcement.
Participants will begin their morning by joining CPS recruiters on a group workout session designed to provide a taste of the physical demands faced by police officers daily. This interactive training offers insights into the rigorous standards required for those considering careers in policing, while also fostering camaraderie and teamwork among attendees.
Following the fitness portion, interested individuals can engage in one-on-one conversations with CPS recruiters who are eager to discuss career paths within law enforcement. These informal discussions offer a chance to ask questions about daily responsibilities, training requirements, advancement opportunities, and the overall culture of policing without any pressure or obligations.
The event takes place at a local park where ample space is available for both exercise activities and relaxed conversations under shaded areas and picnic tables. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own water bottles and wear comfortable clothing suitable for physical activity.
This unique blend of fitness and career exploration provides an ideal setting for individuals curious about the world of policing, offering them firsthand experience with the demands and rewards of a law enforcement career in a supportive community environment.
The day promises not only personal growth through exercise but also valuable insights into potential future careers. Whether you are already considering a path in public safety or simply looking to learn more, this event offers an engaging way to explore your options and connect with professionals who can provide guidance on how to pursue such a rewarding career.
