Athletics Alberta invites all road race participants to have their say on the best recreational & competitive road races in Alberta! Let your voice be heard!

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

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

Please note: There is no parking on the south side of the bridge. Leave your cars at your hotels, and either walk or take the Banff "Roam Bus". It is a busy weekend so be sure to make your hotel bookings soon.
