One of the half marathons that some Calgarians look forward to is the First Half Half in Vancouver. The 2010 version has been unfortunately cancelled due to the Olympics conflicting with the race route/venues.
The Harvest Half Marathon (Oct 3) has reached capacity. The Last Chance Half Marathon (Nov 15) has sold 300 out of 500 entries and will sell out before the race date. There are no confirmed dates for any Calgary half marathons, but the next one is probably February or March.
Starting January 1, Cochrane runner Martin Parnell is going to attempt to run 250 marathons in 365 days to raise $250,000 for Right to Play. Five days a week he'll run 42.2k, as well as the Woody's Red Deer Marathon, the Calgary Marathon, and the Footstock half marathon x 2. Check out the Red Rock Runners website for more information.
The Banff Ekiden Relay Road Race is back! After a one-year hiatus, this very popular relay takes place October 17, 2009. Register online or through Strides Running Store.
