Saskatchewan Marathon : key information
The Saskatchewan Marathon is an annual event organized by the Saskatoon Road Runners Association in Saskatoon. The 2026 race day is on May 31 and takes place at Diefenbaker Park. Race kit pick-up is held the day before at Prairieland Park.
Available race formats include multiple distances and event types:
- Marathon (42.2 km)
- Half marathon
- Family Focus Eyecare 2.2K
- MaraFun 2.2K final from the school program
- Walking options for distances except the full marathon
Online registration closes on May 28; to have a bib personalized with a first name, register by May 1. Standard registration items listed for 2026 include a commemorative medal, a New Balance technical t-shirt, and access to a results platform with separate running and walking categories, a photo gallery, and a digital race certificate. A no-shirt registration option is available.
The full marathon uses rolling road closures and includes time-based checkpoints. There is an enforced checkpoint near km 17; participants who do not meet the checkpoint requirement will be redirected to the half marathon. Continuing past the cutoff is at the runner’s own risk and course support may be reduced. Entry fees are non-refundable and registrations cannot be transferred to another person. A personalized iTAB plaque is offered and will be mailed after the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
