Waterloo 10 KM Classic 2026

The Waterloo 10 KM Classic is a race weekend held at the North Campus Field House on Columbia Street West in Waterloo, Ontario. The main event is a 10K. A 5K is scheduled for Saturday evening, with a 10K and 3K on Sunday morning. A 200-metre kids' race is offered on both days. The courses are certified by Athletics Canada and sanctioned by Athletics Ontario. Over a thousand participants typically register, accommodating a broad field beyond just club racers. The format allows runners to combine events. The Little Dipper pairs the 5K with the 3K. The Big Dipper adds the Saturday 5K before the Sunday 10K, totaling 15 kilometres. Each timed race includes a finisher medal. The two-race Dipper options include an exclusive Dipper medal. The kids' 200m includes a bib and a medal. Parents or guardians running a timed event can join their child in the 200m without registering separately.
