The Manitoba Marathon, held annually in Winnipeg, Manitoba, is a celebrated running event known for its fast, flat, and friendly course, making it an ideal Boston Marathon qualifier. The race weekend features multiple distances including a full marathon, half marathon, relay, 10km, and a 5km Super Run, along with fun runs for children like the Mini and Mighty Mites dashes. The event fosters a vibrant atmosphere with on-course entertainment and strong community involvement, including partnerships with United Way Winnipeg to support people with intellectual disabilities.
The marathon emphasizes inclusivity, sustainability, and volunteer engagement, offering a festive celebration of fitness and fundraising each June at the University of Manitoba. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
