New this year: Wave starts for the half marathon
We will have two waves. First wave will start at 9:00am and the second wave at 9:15am. We will send off the fastest 3 corrals first followed by the remaining 3 corrals. Each bib will indicate wave 1 or wave 2 based on estimated finish time.
By initiating wave starts we will reduce crowding on narrow parts of the course and crossing of the MacDonald Cartier Bridge. It will also lessen the impact of the merge where half marathon join marathoners and it will also mean less congestion at the finish line and recovery area.
