The organizers of the event who are avid runners and walkers, working in collaboration with the City of Surrey, felt that a great city like Surrey needs it’s own road run and hence a downtown Surrey route was selected.
Due to Covid the original RunSurreyRun 2020 was initiated as a Virtual Walk/Run. In 2022 the first in person event was launch along with the 2nd Virtual event.
And now we are back with RunSurreyRun 2023 both in person and Virtual 5k/ 10k walk / run.
