21km Route
The 2024 route will be the same as last year.
It offers runners a chance to enjoy our scenic badlands trail that is paved with a 1K gravel loop in the middle, through the picturesque badlands near the Royal Tyrrell Museum. It is mostly flat with some hills. It will be well marked and well marshaled.
From the start line, runners will go run east 3 blocks, south 1 block and then head west along the river pathway, under the train bridge and out through McMullan Island. After crossing Highway 838, runners will head out into the picturesque badlands on a loop through the hills and return back on the same trail to our Midland Hall start/finish, then repeat that loop again to complete the 21K course.
