Free Entry Contests from My Next KW Home in 2025

Our favourite Realtor has been giving away free race entries monthly for almost ten years (!!) and 2024 was the biggest year yet!

We’ve got some big changes for 2025 but first, a recap of a great year. Mike and Laura were there every step of the way with fun contests and lots of free entries đŸ™‚ Thanks to all who participated and congrats to all the winners, it was a blast.

Now for 2025, we’re upgrading the contest once again. Here’s what we’re up to this year!

That’s right: we’re cutting down on the number of contests this year (less for you to keep track of) but increasing the number of prizes up for grabs. Huge thanks to My Next KW Home Group for keeping us motivated year after year!

Now for the first contest of 2026, “winter contest for spring races”. Next week we’re picking 5 winners for an entry to their choice of our late winter/spring calendar (cone5togo, endurrace, Baden Running Races). All you need to do is let us know…

What are your thoughts on winter running?

Post it anywhere we will see it: a comment on this blog post, a comment on any contest-related post from Run Waterloo or My Next KW Home Group, or your own posts that you tag Run Waterloo and My Next KW Home Group in. Contest dates and deadlines are in the table above. Happy contesting and we want to know what you think of this winter, and what it means for spring running!
