The MRA Classic Race Series is a series of MRA sanctioned events run on courses certified accurate by Athletics Canada. Distances vary from 5k-Full Marathon and are timed by an MRA-approved timer. The emphasis of this series is to encourage friendly competition among runners 16 years of age and older (age calculated as of January 1st). Points are earned based on placings at the races in the series and are used to calculate the top three runners (male and female) in each five year age category. These winners are awarded for their achievement at the annual MRA Awards Banquet in November.

An MRA membership is required to take part in the series. A minimum of 5 races are needed to qualify for an award, with the points in your best 10 races to be used for the final calculations. The point system is as follows:
