The Calgary First Responders Half Marathon is a fall race held in Calgary, Alberta, starting at St. Patrick’s Island Park at The Rise. Multisportscanada organizes it as part of the First Responders Half Marathon series. The event includes a 21K half marathon, 10K, 5K, and 1K fun run. Staggered late-morning starts ensure different distances use the same race-day setup. The event acknowledges and supports first responders in the local community. The route follows Calgary’s Bow River pathway system, offering a city course along the river instead of closed suburban loops. The half marathon and 10K feature a four-person team category, with each team receiving an averaged time rather than a relay format. Participants receive chip timing, on-course fluid stations, a finisher medal, and post-race snacks. Series results have been recorded since 2015.

The Get Shit Done Run is a spring race in Calgary, Alberta, offering 5 km, 10 km, and half marathon distances, along with a virtual option for those running elsewhere. The in-person event utilizes the Nose Creek pathway near Telus Spark, featuring a paved start and finish. Organizers describe the course as straightforward and quick. This race was established to welcome runners and walkers of all levels. Consequently, participants range from first-timers and goal-chasers to those following pacers or using the event to begin their race season. The day emphasizes enjoyable elements: a live DJ, a photo booth, medals for all participants, water, post-race food, and large finish-line pretzels with various sauces.
