Scheduled for October 19, 2025, the CHSFW Rubber Ducky event celebrates its 18th annual running with a playful twist and a community-driven mission. Participants can choose between a 5 km, 7-mile (~11 km), or half marathon (21.1 km) route, each tracing scenic, flat, and well-maintained trails through Burnaby Lake Regional Park—a haven for birdlife and natural beauty in Metro Vancouver. Organized by Try Events and benefiting the Charlford House Society for Women, the race fosters both physical activity and social impact. Themed after its namesake, many runners don duck-themed costumes, adding color and humor to the peaceful lake surroundings. Finishers receive medals, water stations are located throughout the course, and post-race refreshments round out a cheerful day designed for all levels of runners and walkers.
