Chase the Pace
Chase the Pace is a collaboration between Mile2Marathon and Run Ottawa. The event focuses on inclusivity, offering a supportive track racing environment with pacers, professional timing, and trackside cheers.
Several race distances are offered. All adult races are 5000 meters (12.5 laps of the track). Runners are placed in heats according to their target pace, with pacers from Mile2Marathon to guide them. A Mile race is also offered for adults and youths wanting to test their speed.
For children, 400-meter and 800-meter races are available.
The event takes place at the Terry Fox Athletic Facility. Free parking is available onsite. Carpooling, public transportation, and cycling are encouraged.
Registration is online until the deadline. There is no onsite registration on event day. Entry fees vary by distance and age category (adult, youth, kid). A Green Bib option allows a portion of the registration fee to be donated to the charity partner, Camp Quality, which supports children with cancer and blood disorders.
