On March 8, 2026, over 30 people in Kingston, Canada, ran to honor Hamid Mahdavi, an Iranian firefighter who died rescuing protesters during a crackdown in Iran, with reports saying he saved nine lives before being shot by regime forces.
The event, which began small, drew members of the Iranian and Iranian-Canadian communities and a Canadian volunteer firefighter, who joined in solidarity.
Participants wore shirts with Mahdavi’s name and reenacted his final act of carrying a wounded person, transforming the run into a public tribute and act of resistance against silence and fear.
Organizers announced weekly runs to remember other victims of the Iranian regime, aiming to preserve their stories and affirm dignity, hope, and collective courage.
