Entry Fees: PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
$60.00 Non-refundable/Online Registration Only

Entry Fees are NOT REFUNDABLE. Includes G.S.T. All participants will receive a 100% cotton shirt imprinted with original artwork to commemorate the event, post race beverages and snacks, 1/2 price voucher for dinner at Melissa's (not valid on race weekend), post-race party and great draw prizes.

There is no waiting list because we accept 10% more entries than the quota, to address the no-show factor. These quotas are imposed by Parks Canada and The Town of Banff. Bandit Runners will be pulled from the start line to keep us in compliance with these restrictions, in order to maintain our "Working Together" relationship with Parks Canada and The Town of Banff.

For Safety reasons, wheelchairs, baby joggers, strollers, burleys and pets will not be permitted on the race course.

The 22km has been capped at 1,500 runners. Please enter early so that you are not disappointed.

Registration for the 33rd Annual Melissa's Road Race
is done exclusively online!

Due to time restraints, we regret we are no longer able to accommodate walkers in our event.

Melissa's Road Race does not solicit sponsorship dollars, nor do we hire or reimburse a race director for services. It is the mandate of our event to provide for our participants, the very best, hospitality driven, running event in Canada. To that end, Melissa's provides and pays for all the rental items, entertainment, food and beverages, as well as insurance, licenses, t-shirts and cash prizes. Melissa's Road Race is not a fund raising event but has chosen over the years to donate any profits generated from our road race, back into the community.
