Race course and venue

A super flat course through beautiful Riverside Park in Cambridge, Ontario, along the Speed River. Check out the Strava route.

This course is only slightly changed from 2024, in that it doesn't obstruct any parking :)

The entire race course is closed to cars, and runners have complete tangents available at all points with two exceptions of two-way runners:

Along the Speed River south from 1.3k to 1.65k and north from 2.7k to 3.05k. This is a full width road and will be coned down the middle; runners run on the right.
Along Rogers Dr. south from 3.7k to 4.1k and then north from 4.1k to 4.5k. This turnaround re-uses an earlier part of the course; on your first pass through this area from 0.5k to 0.9k, you will have the full width of the road, and you will see cones to your side. By the time the first runner gets to 3.7k, cones will divide this full width road in half, with runners on the left both ways with a clockwise U-turn, the only turnaround on the course. The course is certified with these tangents in mind.

There is a water stations at 2.5k.

There is lots of parking at lots along Rogers Dr. Note that all vehicles must enter from Speedsville Rd. only, and the race course does not obstruct any parking. There are 2x the required number of washrooms in close proximity to the start line, including indoor and portable options.

Sanctioning and certification

This race is sanctioned by Athletics Ontario and the course is certified by Athletics Canada.
