Fire Fighters Ten Mile Road Race - Thunder Bay, Ontario
The Fire Fighters Ten Mile Road Race takes place in Thunder Bay, Ontario on May 18, 2026. The event marks its 90th running and is presented by Fresh Air. It is organized by the Professional Fire Fighters Association and is described by the organizers as the longest standing 10 mile road race in Canada.
Race options include an individual ten mile entry and a relay. For 2026 the event introduces Adaptive and Para Athlete categories; the three named categories are Visually Impaired Athlete, Autonomous Athlete with Assistance, and Wheelchair Athlete. Adaptive and Para Athletes register under the individual registration pathway.
A one‑year Fire and Falls Legacy Challenge pairs this race with the Kakabeka Falls Legion Half Marathon. Participants who complete both races cover a combined 23.1 miles and are eligible for a commemorative challenge coin if they register for the challenge in advance. Challenge registration closes May 1, 2026; the coin costs $15 and is awarded only to those who sign up in advance and have official finishing times in both races. Space for the challenge is limited.
The race names Isthmus as its 2026 charity partner; donations during registration are optional and 100 percent of those donations remain local. Limited edition 90th anniversary apparel and an optional official race shirt are available for purchase subject to organizer deadlines.
