The Wounded Warriors 2026 B.C. Run leaves Campbell River this morning as runners head to the Comox Valley.

The journey began Sunday, Feb. 22 in Port Hardy. Runners arrived in Campbell River Tuesday evening for an event at the Royal Canadian Legion.

The run is a fundraiser for mental health programs through Wounded Warriors Canada. This year’s fundraising goal is $250,000.

Runners are scheduled to stop at the Oyster River Fire Department before continuing to the Comox Valley for the night.

The 800-kilometre journey ends March 1 in Victoria.
