LoveLife Run - Amsterdam 2026

The LoveLife Run Amsterdam is a 5K race in Amsterdam for individuals living with cancer, cancer survivors, and their support networks. The Amsterdam event is scheduled for October, with past editions linked to the June Yet Zuidas Run held on the Zuidas. Stichting Fight cancer is the organizing body. The run serves a dual purpose: participants train to complete the 5-kilometer distance while simultaneously fundraising for cancer research. The race emphasizes support throughout the preparation period, extending beyond the event itself. Individuals can participate solo or as part of a team, often running with family, friends, medical professionals, or other caregivers. A 12-week training program is available for patients, guided by trainers from the Cancer Care Centre and FTSA who possess oncology expertise. The Amsterdam event has previously utilized a dedicated start area within the Yet Zuidas Run, providing LoveLife runners with a distinct space within a larger city race. A recent edition generated over EUR80,000 for Stichting Fight cancer. The training component also aims to foster connections among patients and aid them in rebuilding confidence in their physical capabilities during or after treatment.
