The 21km will also have an additional porta potty on the way to the out and back 21km only turn around which is approximately 10.5km.

Bag Drop: We will have an un-official bag drop (ie. your bag will not be checked in but rather placed under a tent and not officially supervised) at the start/finish line. Everything must be inside a small bag/backpack and you can drop your bag under the tent before you run.

Bibs: Your bib must be visible at all time on your FRONT while on course. Racers without numbers will be asked to asked to leave the course. You may NOT have an unregistered runner or coach run with you.

Timing: Official timing will be provided by Startline Timing. Timing is through a microchip on the back of your race bib. DO NOT BEND YOUR BIB or you will not receive an official time. In the event there is an issue with your time, please email [email protected] with details.

Music: because the course is on pathways you MAY run with music. However you must be able to hear officials and other pedestrians at all times. Please note, you must run with earbuds and MAY NOT play music that is audible to other racers. If officials or volunteers catch you doing so you will be immediately disqualified.

Dogs: Dogs are NOT allowed on course. We will be monitoring this closely.

Strollers: We are a stroller-friendly race course! Please be advised that on-course hydration and finish line cookies are for racers only.

On-Course Nutrition: In an effort to reduce the waste and littering we have all seen at running events, the Get Shit Done Run is a cup-less event. This means that those paper cups that runners use to take a shot of water, soda, or electrolyte will not be available. Let's face it, we have all seen what a waste those cups are, and one single sip for a whole cup is ridiculous.

You must bring your own reusable cup.

Together we will save thousands of paper cups from being used, trashed, and possibly blown away littering our beautiful pathways.

21km course:

5km (water, electrolytes)

10km (water, electrolytes, gels, coke)

16km (water, electrolytes, gels, coke)

We will have a gluten free option for those who declare they require a GF option during registration. Please ask a volunteer at the food tent to verify you are on the gluten free list to obtain your cookie.

Tuesday Brewing non-alcoholic beer will be served as well along and water and electrolytes.

What You Need to Know:

• This is a free, women-led 20-week training program designed to support women, and those who identify as women, to prepare for the 2026 Servus Calgary Marathon.

• You’ll train toward the Servus Credit Union 42.2 km or Centaur Subaru 21.1 km, taking place Sunday, May 24.

• The program begins January 5 with a four-week foundations phase focused on movement, mindset, and goal-setting.

• After the foundations phase, participants follow a 16-week structured training plan, with beginner and intermediate options.

• You’ll receive access to a private online group for community support, updates, and discussion.

• Weekly content—pre-recorded and sometimes live—will be delivered by local female coaches and experts covering: nutrition, safety, (peri)menopause, recovery and so much more!

What’s In It For You:

• A supportive, empowering community designed specifically for women runners.

• Access to a free, comprehensive 20-week training program to help you reach your half marathon or full marathon race goals, beginner and intermediate options available.

• Invites to monthly in-person meet-ups throughout Calgary to connect with others in the program.

• Access to a private online group and guidance on topics that matter most to women runners.

• Motivation, accountability, and a space to learn alongside women with similar goals and experiences.

• A stronger foundation in wellness, training strategy, and overall readiness for race day.

Why It Matters:

When women see themselves represented in the running space - and train alongside others who share their goals, pace, and life stage - something powerful happens. Confidence builds. Community forms. And what once felt uncertain becomes achievable.

Join us this winter and be part of the movement toward more women standing confidently on the start line.
