The Fort Garry Rotary Half Marathon 2026 and 5K will be held at St. Vital Park. This 14th Annual Rotary event offers a local, charitable atmosphere. It is known as a "true gem on the Winnipeg running calendar," benefiting from "ideal September weather," "dedicated volunteers," and a straightforward setup that allows participants to arrive prepared to run.
The event is a friendly, park-based race where families and regular runners participate together, emphasizing fellowship alongside the timed competition. Packet pickup at Kenaston Running Room in Kenaston Village Mall adds to the familiar community-race feel. "Enthusiastic crowd support" and the opportunity to "soak up the community spirit" are key attractions. Proceeds benefit the Bruce and Anne Oake Memorial Foundation and Knowles Centre, connecting the run to local causes.
