Registration for the 2025 PUMA Toronto Women's 10K/5K race on Saturday, May 24, is now open! 🎉🎉

Yes, you've read that right: the race name has changed to reflect a change in the distance options for this race. You still have the choice to set your own pace with a 10K or a 5K, but for 2025, we have made the difficult decision to pause our half marathon distance.

As always, the safety and quality of the race day experience is paramount. Our decision to pause the half marathon is based on two key factors: the ever-increasing construction projects underway within the Toronto park system and the dramatic post-pandemic surge in pedestrian and cyclist traffic on the trails.

Based on these factors, we have concluded that we can no longer ensure the same high level of safety and optimal enjoyment that made our half marathon event an accessible, friendly, supportive, and one-of-a-kind experience. We will continue to work with City officials to monitor the ongoing construction and reassess and review our future options in fall 2025.

We have increased the number of spots in the 10K/5K to ensure everyone has an opportunity to set their pace. Every race participant will receive a PUMA running shirt, an exclusive finisher medal, a fully supported scenic race route, access to our amazing post-race party and more!
