Canada's most southern Boston Qualifying Marathon
The World Alzheimer's Day 'Run for Heroes' Marathon is Canada's most southern Boston Qualifying Marathon. We are a 'boutique' race because we are small, intimate, with gorgeous scenery, very fast and super flat. Almost 20% of all runners from our Marathon qualified for Boston this year! Hosted in wine country at the mouth of Lake Erie and the Detroit River, Historic Amherstburg offers a real runners experience without the crazy big Marathon shuffle. Amherstburg is a half hour from the Windsor Detroit border with lots of great accommodations in the region, from Bed and Breakfasts to Caesars Windsor.
When we make the claim that we are fast and flat, the proof is in the numbers. 18% of all runners who ran the Marathon in 2012 qualified for Boston in 2013.
More info
Run For Heroes course has aid stations every 2k with a port-a-john, lots of entertainment and a professional pace group to get you in on time. There are stunning wetlands, long views of the Detroit River and a run through Historic Fort Malden, the epicenter of the War of 1812. We are a boutique Marathon with a great course and we limit it to only 3,000 runners.
Great tech shirt, colourful medal, bib/chip, Photos (Lightroom will be proving the photography that is included in your registration fee) and Pacers are all included. We keep the price low, so you can help raise some funds for Alzheimer's through pledges and giving.
