THANK YOU!!
To all runners and walkers who supported the 2016 edition of the Dartmouth Natal Day Road Races. We hope you had an enjoyable event and that you'll join us again next August for the 2017 edition.
Welcome to the 110th Edition of the Dartmouth Natal Day Road Races. Our event is one of the oldest road races in North America. Competitive runners, recreational runners and walkers are all encouraged to participate. We take pride in being a fun and affordable event for the whole family. The course is a two mile loop and runners have the choice of running a two mile or a six mile race.
Both the 6 Mile and 2 Mile races will be Run Nova Scotia Series events in 2016. The 6 Miler is also part of the Run NS Performance Series and should attract some of the fastest runners in Nova Scotia.
The online entry fee is only $20 for Adults and $5 for Youth (age 17 & under). Run Nova Scotia Members receive $5 off Adult entry fees.
A quality souviner t-shirt will be available for the first 1,000 runners to register. They will be Gildan brand 100% polyester shirts and the sizing tends to run small. You may want to order one size up from what you usually wear. The special Youth entry fee of $5 does not include a t-shirt, but one can be purchased online for $10. A limited number of youth sizes will be available.
Awards presentation , draw prizes and refreshments will follow the race.
Walk up registration will be available on Sunday July 31st from 3PM to 6PM at $25 for adult entries and $5 for youth entries.

The course is open to traffic but is well controlled by police and course marshals for your saftey. After 9:30 AM we may lose some police support and traffic will be heavier as the number of participants on the course declines. If it will take you more than 1:15 to complete the race, please move to the side of the road and be cautious, particularly for the last mile along Portland St and Alderney Dr. The finish line will remain open until at least 10:00 AM.
