Argus Apple Marathon Race Weekend
The Argus Apple Marathon Race Weekend in Kelowna offers multiple distances on a certified, flat course that is recognized by Athletics Canada as a Boston-qualifier. Distances offered include:
- 42.2 km marathon, two loops
- 21.1 km half marathon, one loop
- 8 km
- 1.6 km Family Fun Run
The start and finish are located in City Park. The marathon and half marathon follow the same route: north through downtown on paved roads and bike paths, then south along the Abbott Street bike path by Okanagan Lake, looping near Okanagan College and returning to City Park. The marathon completes two full laps while the half marathon completes one. The 8 km course splits from the longer route at Broadway Ave and Ellis St and returns to City Park.
Aid stations are fully stocked and courses are fully marked and supported. The marathon has a six hour course time limit. Participants may run with a stroller but are required to start from the back of the corral.
Race weekend includes package pickup and an event expo in City Park and a Family Fun Run on Saturday. Live race tracking and provisional live results are available via the event timing partner, including web tracking, leaderboards, map tracking, and a mobile app. Official results are posted after event completion.
Registration policies note that entries are non-refundable, with an optional third-party refund insurance. Transfers and distance changes are permitted under specified conditions. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
