Fredericton Marathon
|
Fredericton, NB
|

The Fredericton Marathon and East Coast Music Awards are set to strike the right chord in May 2022 by conducting a special 8k (5 miler) race on Saturday, May 7, 2022.
?Music and running definitely go hand in hand,? said Christine Little & Bruce Macfarlane, co-race directors of the Fredericton Marathon. ?And we couldn?t think of a better way to commemorate the East Coast Music Awards and the Fredericton Marathon taking place on the same weekend in the capital city than by hosting a special race.?
The 8k (5-miler) run/walk will occur at 10:00 a.m. Saturday, May 7, along the Lincoln and Nashwaak trails, beginning at the Lady Beaverbrook Arena and crossing the picturesque Bill Thorpe Walking Bridge.
?We couldn?t think of a better way to mark our two events? says Andy McLean, CEO of the East Coast Music Association. ?This is very inline with our health and wellness programs at ECMA, knowing full well the benefits both exercise and music bring to us. We are looking forward to running alongside the marathon in May.?
The Fredericton Marathon has always wanted to conduct an 8k event and the volunteer organizing committee decided this would be the perfect opportunity to introduce the special distance to the running community.

Bluenose Marathon
|
|
|
The Full Marathon begins and ends in the downtown core but not before showcasing some of the beautiful neighbourhoods of Halifax. Halifax has gained a reputation for being a little ?hill-y? but it?s nothing you can?t handle (we?re sure of it!). You can also find comfort in knowing that the whole city will be cheering you on from the sidelines.

Marathon des Chenes Toi

For 2022, we are pleased to announce the addition of marathon distance . It will be possible to participate individually or as a team. Of course, we are fully aware that this distance may not be accessible to all participants. To overcome this situation, your employees will be able to live this unique experience as a team.
You can therefore form teams of 2 to 5 participants. Distances have already been selected depending on the number of people who will be in the team. Shuttles will be available for participants in relays away from the start site. All members of the group will complete the last km together. We invite you to consult the WEB site to find out about the route, prices and planned distances.
The course is in the process of being certified to be accepted for qualification for the Boston Marathon. The course will reopen to traffic at 1:00 p.m. Participants who do not finish within six hours must respect the road safety code.

Saskatchewan Marathon
|
Saskatoon, Saskatchewan
|
|
You are registered to take part in the 44th Saskatchewan Marathon, one of the longest running marathons in Canada.
The first event was run, with only the marathon distance offered, on May 12, 1979. In August, 1979, Saskatoon would be hosting the Western Canada Summer Games. The Saskatoon Road Runners Association (established in 1975) was asked by the organizers of the 1979 Western Canada Summer Games to organize an event with two purposes. First, the event would be a test run of the marathon event of the Games. Secondly, the event would act as a qualifier for three Saskatchewan residents, making them eligible to run the WCSG event on August 15.
The first event had 66 registrants and 53 finishers and was won by Ted Hawes (2:33:02). The fastest female was Sandra LeClaire (3:18:03).
The Saskatchewan Marathon has been run over a variety of courses through Saskatoon in two different seasons. In the early years, the event was held in the late spring. A switch was made to the fall and the event was held then for many years. In 2004, organizers went back to a late spring date and we anticipate it staying there for the foreseeable future. The course has made extensive use of our beautiful South Saskatchewan River valley and the trail, roadway and park system of the Meewasin Valley Authority. As well, portions of the course have run through our historic University of Saskatchewan campus and old established residential neighbourhoods. The race committee and course designers will continue to modify and expand the course as the city grows and more river crossings become available. We hope you enjoy this year?s return to Prairieland and Diefenbaker Parks and your journey across the rebuilt Traffic Bridge in the heart of Saskatoon.
The Saskatchewan Marathon started with just the 26.2 mile distance. Now there are five distances: Kids? MaraFun, 5K, 10K, half-marathon and marathon. It?s a first-class event: it?s been a Boston qualifier for years and participants enjoy the accuracy and convenience of race chip timing.
The current women?s record for the Sask Marathon is held by Donna Grisak ? 1990 ? 2:59:36.
The men?s Sask Marathon record is held by David Mutai ? 2019 ? 2:22:09.
