Stunning Running
The BMO Vancouver Marathon will return as a Virtual Race, May of 2021! Ranked one of the top destination marathons in the world, the BMO Vancouver Marathon is a scenic award-winning course that traditionally takes runners on a 42.2KM (26.2 miles) adventure past beaches, through natural parks, and along Vancouver’s Seawall – the world’s longest uninterrupted waterfront path. Vancouver’s only marathon offers 70% shoreline views and stunning scenery. Locals may continue to enjoy that beautiful backyard as you may race from wherever you are, provided it’s safe to do so in your geographical area. Join this year’s Virtual Race to collect your commemorative tech tee and other unique race rewards! 2021 participants will also receive guaranteed early bird reg opportunities in 2022 for the event’s 50th Anniversary Celebration! Please note all non-essential travel to and within BC should currently be avoided due to the COVID-19 global pandemic as directed by health authorities.
