PRESENTED BY:

The MRA Classic Race Series is a series of MRA sanctioned events run on courses certified accurate by Athletics Canada. Distances vary from 5k to the Full Marathon and are timed by an MRA-approved timer. The emphasis of this series is to encourage friendly competition among runners 17 years of age and older (age calculated as of January 1st).

Points are earned based on placings compared to other MRA members at the races in the series and are used to calculate the top three runners (men & women) in each five year age category. New is a top 3 overall non-binary category! These winners are awarded for their achievement at the annual MRA Awards Celebration in November.
