Courses are certified by Athletics Canada and the event is sanctioned by Athletics Ontario. Exact routes, the venue map, and some venue details are listed as TBA and may change with municipal approvals. Participants are responsible for knowing the course; turns will be marshaled and signed. A time limit of 10 minutes per kilometre applies; participants who do not meet the calculated times from the halfway mark of the 10 km may be asked to move to the sidewalk and finish as pedestrians without race support.
Every finisher receives a finisher medal. Technical shirts are available for purchase during registration while supplies last. Registration operates under a no-refund policy; deferrals and transfers are described in the waiver agreed to at registration. Run Waterloo, a non-profit organization, organizes the event.
