Frequently Asked Questions
See below for some Frequently Asked Questions on the Moose Jawg Charity Road Race:
- Are pets allowed on the course during the race? No, unfortunately for the safety of all the runners and our furry friends, no pets allowed.
- Can I change races? You can change races online; there will be a fee to do so.
- Can I walk the event? ***** Organizers of Moose Jawg will allow walkers in the 5km event ONLY. This is a very strict rule please. ONLY THE 5KM can be a walking event. For the 10km, you are expected to run this event. If you are not prepared to run the majority of the 10km, then please enter the 5km only.
- Are strollers allowed on the course during the race? Strollers will be allowed but you must start at the back of all other runners at the start line. You must also watch for ruuners behind you and around you while on the course because the trail can be narrow in some spots.
Sponsor Us!
The Moose Jawg Charity Road Race is celebrating 19 years of good health, fun and running in the City of Moose Jaw. Since the beginning of Moose Jawg, we have raised over $139,000 for the Moose Jaw Health Foundation and enriched the lives of all who have attended the event during that time by promoting a healthy lifestyle. All of this could not have been done without our wonderful sponsors. Many of which have been with us since our first race.
We are once again looking for Sponsors for our 19th Annual Moose Jawg. Please consider sponsoring the Moose Jawg Charity Road Race and making a difference in the lives of our runners and the Moose Jaw Health Foundation.

Race Course
About the Moose Jawg Charity Road Race
Moose Jawg Charity Road Race is a 5 km RUN/WALK and 10 km RUN organized and hosted by local volunteers. Before 2023, it was held every Canada Day, July 1, in Moose Jaw’s own beautiful Wakamow Valley. The 2023 event will be held on June 17.
Runners pay $60.00 to enter and are provided with a t-shirt, a post-race snacks and a chance to win many prizes.
Proceeds for this event before 2023 went to the Moose Jaw Health Foundation Initiatives. More than $139,000.00 has been raised in those 18 years. Moose Jawg operates on a zero budget and relies on revenue from the race and sponsorship from the wonderful businesses in and around Moose Jaw to cover our costs for advertising, signage, shirts and food.
The idea for the Moose Jawg sprang from a meeting between Dawn Luhning and Ken Dalgarno to organize the Moose Jaw Horizon Running Club. At the time, almost all road races in the province were held in either Regina or Saskatoon. There had been a few attempts to organize a race in Moose Jaw but for whatever reason they failed to generate much interest or participation. We knew that if properly organized, there were enough local runners to sustain a race and if properly marketed, we could attract a good number of the running community from around the province. We met our goals the very first year with 75 runners. Almost half of the participants were from out of town. Our second year entries increased to 125 runners. In 2011 we had our best turn out ever with over 600 runners and over 70 participants in the runt run and we continue to grow.
The race attracts runners from all over Canada and we are particularly excited to have had runners from outside Canada over the years as well. Also included before the race each year is the Runt Run where children under 8 years of age run a small loop under 1km. The Runt Run has proven to be a very entertaining pre-race event. The cost for the children is only $25.00 to participate and every year each child receives a small gift for finishing, goodies, and of course lots of cheers for their efforts.
We look forward to seeing everyone again this year!!!
