The PartnerRe Women’s 5k Run and Walk (and Girls Junior 2k) is on Sunday 4 October 2026. This is the biggest female only race in Bermuda and is a fantastic fun event for all levels of fitness which supports ‘Women helping Women’ charities in Bermuda. 

This year we are delighted to be supporting the Bermuda Education Network (BEN), which assists public primary school teachers in their objective to help children learn, grow and overcome challenges by investing in professional learning, leadership development, practical classroom resources, and collaborative networks that enable educators to help more children succeed. The funds from the PartnerRe will go towards sustaining BEN’s children’s literacy programmes which strengthen children's literacy and wellbeing.  Find out more here. 

2026 marks 29 years of the PartnerRe 5k Run and Walk. Since 1998, this event has raised $580,000 for female-related causes in Bermuda. These include programmes to confront physical abuse, support rape victims, reduce poverty, educate children, combat breast cancer, and fund equipment and initiatives supporting the treatment of women’s health.

Join in the fun and become part of a great Bermuda tradition.
