About the race
The 15th Annual Edmonton First Responders Half Marathon takes place on May 2, 2027 at William Hawrelak Park in Edmonton, Alberta. The event is organized to honour and support first responders, including police officers, firefighters, paramedics and other emergency personnel, and to bring the community together along Edmonton's River Valley.
Event distances include:
- 21.1 km half marathon
- 10 km run
- 5 km Frontline run walk
- 1 km fun run
Team competitions are offered for the half marathon and the 10 km. Each team must register exactly four runners. All four team members complete the full distance individually; this is not a relay. Team results are calculated from the average finishing time of the four runners and each member also receives an individual official time. A team must have all four members start and finish to receive an official team time.
Charity entries are available with reduced entry fees in partnership with OSI CAN and Wounded Warriors Canada; those charity entries require a fundraising commitment of at least CA$400. Organizers state that entries are non refundable and non deferrable, transfers are allowed only through the official system where permitted, and the event may be modified or cancelled for safety reasons such as hazardous air quality or other circumstances beyond organizers control. In the event of full cancellation organizers may offer discretionary options such as a virtual entry or a partial registration credit toward the next year.
