Aruba Bank Walk & Run 2026 successfully concluded its 20th edition, marking two decades of promoting an active lifestyle and strengthening connections within our community.
Under the theme “Evolving Together,” thousands of participants came together over four consecutive evenings to walk, run, and share in an atmosphere filled with energy, motivation, and enthusiasm.
What began in 2005 as a local sporting event has, over the past 20 years, grown into a cherished community tradition. This year’s edition welcomed participants of all ages and fitness levels, all sharing a common goal: to stay active, challenge themselves, and evolve together.
A special highlight of this anniversary edition was the introduction of the Corporate Teams category, allowing colleagues to form teams and motivate one another throughout the four-day event. This initiative perfectly reflected the campaign’s message that progress and success are best achieved when we work together.
Participants who completed more than 20 kilometers over the four days received the exclusive Finisher’s Coin, recognizing their perseverance and commitment.
Aruba Bank extends its sincere gratitude to the more than 100 volunteers who contributed to the success of the event. Among them were Aruba Bank employees, representatives of various community organizations, emergency personnel, and many other collaborators who worked tirelessly to ensure a safe, enjoyable, and memorable experience for all participants.
Special thanks go to our main partners Subway and IBISA, as well as to the Aruba Police Force, Aruba Red Cross, Volunteer Motor Unit, Patrishi Sports, Excelencia Catering, Elite Entertainment, MC Glennon, DJ 101, DJ Ulrich, 297Sports, Sunny Side Photography, Michael Salazar Photography, Signs 365, Believe in Yourself Foundation, Smart Systems, Total Services, and all other collaborators who supported the event.
On the competitive side, siblings Christiaan Jansen and Rebecca Jansen dominated the overall standings and were crowned the male and female champions of Aruba Bank Walk & Run 2026 after four days of intense competition.
Aruba Bank thanks all participants, volunteers, supporters, and spectators who came out to cheer along the route and helped make this event a historic celebration.
