Super Abilities Fun Run 2026
The Super Abilities Fun Run returns to Edmonton on May 30, 2026. Held in Rundle Park and presented in support of Connect Society Edmonton, this community-focused event marks the third annual edition of the Super Abilities Fun Run. It centres on celebrating American Sign Language and the cultures of Deaf, Hard of Hearing and DeafBlind communities while welcoming friends from other disability communities.
This is a single-morning fun run that starts at 9:00 a.m. MDT on May 30. Organizers position the event as an inclusive, accessible gathering — “rock run or roll” — inviting runners, walkers and participants using mobility devices to share one start time and a park-based route through Rundle Park. Specific distance options are not listed; the event operates as a neighbourhood fun run and community celebration rather than a competitive race series.
What sets Super Abilities apart is its focus on language and culture. The event frames sign language as a creative, three-dimensional form of communication and uses the run to raise awareness and funds for Connect Society Edmonton; the fundraising goal for 2026 is CA$10,000. Expect an emphasis on accessibility, community connection and celebration of difference rather than race-day frills. The tone is grassroots and welcoming, with outreach to families and community members across a range of abilities.
Registration details are posted through the event platform; a paid entry category is listed at CA$10 (with a free option available). Runners and supporters who want to fundraise for Connect Society Edmonton can set up donation pages as part of their registration.
