Run The River Spring challenge offers a 5km, 10km and half marathon
Join us for the spring version of Run the River and choose from 5km, 10km or a half marathon.
We've partnered with the Riverhawks and now start and finish the run in Re/Max field. Plenty of parking, washrooms and indoor space. In partnership with Save On Foods and with help from the Riverhawks team, we have a post race BBQ for you, included in your entry fee. And beer. We will have a post race beer garden! The route will leave the stadium and take you to the beautiful River Valley pathway before returning to the stadium to finish.
The legendary kids events will happen inside the stadium, right in the infield. How fun is that for the littles?!

Half marathon early start
If you will be longer than 2 1/2 hours for the half marathon, we ask you to take advantage or our new early start at 9:30. This enables us to have everybody finished by 12:30.
5 km route map
UPDATE! We are changing the 5km route to reduce congestion on the 10km and half marathon course. The 5km will still start and finish inside Re/Max stadium and be a direct out and back BUT, once hitting the river path, the 5km route will go east instead of west. This change also allows us to make the 5km stroller and pet friendly! On leash pets are welcome in the 5km and inside the stadium.
