Fort Garry Rotary Half Marathon and 5K Fun Run
The Fort Garry Rotary event in Winnipeg includes a certified half marathon and a 5 km fun run, with proceeds supporting local recovery and youth services. The distances offered are:
- Half marathon
- 5K Fun Run
The half marathon is a certified out‑and‑back course marked with mile markers and kilometer markers at 5, 10 and 15 km. The route starts and finishes at St. Vital Park, follows the Red River and passes along D'Arcy Drive, Thatcher Drive, University Crescent, Sifton Road and Kilkenny Drive before reaching the Perimeter Highway and the turnaround on Cloutier Drive. Race marshals and volunteers in yellow T-shirts are positioned along the course.
The 5K Fun Run is two laps around St. Vital Park Perimeter Road, open to all ages and suitable for families and groups. Water stations are placed approximately every 2 to 3 kilometres on the half marathon. A bag drop is available near the start line. All half marathon finishers receive a medal; 5K medals are awarded to the top three male and female finishers.
The event supports the Bruce and Anne Oake Memorial Foundation and the Knowles Centre. Race kit pickup is scheduled the day before at Kenaston Running Room, Kenaston Village Mall, 1875 Grant Avenue, Winnipeg. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
