Challenge 5km, 10 km and 1/2 Marathon Road Race & Juniors Event
Run the River races happen in the spring and fall. Challenge yourself to run longer, faster, stronger with each race!
Now starting and finishing at Louise McKinney Riverfront Park (lower level).
Your entry fee includes a post race BBQ hosted by our friends at River Valley Adventure Co. Fruit and water is available at the finish and additional beverages are available for purchase from the River Valley Adventure Co. cafe.
Our fall race route is going the opposite direction from what we did in the spring due to planned pathway construction behind the Rossdale Water Treatment plant. Please click here for a map showing the turn points for all distances.
Juniors Event
Bring the kids to Run the River to experience both Run Like a Legend program! We will have a few Mini Legends stations set up in the park so your littles can try their hand at physical literacy. Your kids are welcome to visit the stations and do the activities; start time is 10 a.m. for the kids programming. The program will last approximately one hour. Our Legendary Crew will take the kids through the stations. Please ensure a responsible adult is on hand while your child enjoys this event.
