Run The River Fall challenge offers a 5km, 10km and half marathon
Join us for the fall version of our Run the River challenge. Challenge yourself to run further or faster than you did in the spring.
The race starts and finishes at Louise McKinney Riverfront park with all routes following the river valley pathways. We have partnered with River Valley Adventure Company who will be providing you with a post race BBQ (included in your entry fee). Beer and other beverages are available for purchase.
The legendary kids events will happen in the grassy area right near the start/finish line.

Route maps
All distances start and finish at Louise McKinney Riverfront park (lower level). These routes have a high likelihood of changing due to planned construction on pathways near the Rossdale water plant. Further details should be known by July and maps will be updated at that time.
