Runners Sole

Summer running in Kamloops hits different.

When the sun’s out and the days are long, there’s no shortage of places to get your miles in. From the trails of Kenna Cartwright Park to the winding paths of Petersen Creek Park, the scenic routes through Pineview Valley, and the beautiful terrain of Barnhartvale Nature Park—trail runners are spoiled for choice.

Prefer pavement? You’ve got endless options too: loops through Riverside Park, stretches along the Kamloops Rivers Trail, laps around McArthur Island Park, and honestly—just pick a street in Aberdeen and see how many hills you can find.

But what really makes running here special isn’t just the routes—it’s the people.

From Kamloops RUNClub, Ridge Runners, and So Far So Good Run Crew, to the energy of Dirty Feet Trail Crew, Continuum Club, and Sole Pursuit Running—there’s a group, a pace, and a welcome for everyone.

Kamloops has a big running community, but more importantly, it’s one that runs with heart.

And we’re lucky to be right in the middle of it.
