The updated course post-covid is now entirely self-contained on the Canada side of the falls, starting and ending in the Rapidsview Park area. Packet pickup was outdoors at the park, easy, but fairly barebones. Technical t-shirt was nice. Parking and getting to the race takes more time than anticipated, so leave early and be prepared to walk a good distance to the starting line.

The 2025 race ran northward towards the falls, then doubled back to run parallel to the river along the parkway. The first 5k portion had incredible views of the river, rapids and falls, the city skyline, and power plant. Crowd support during this stretch was also great, with a lot of spectators near the falls. The rest of the course was quieter along the river, but flat and with few turns. The 2026 course appears to be different with more hills, so my course review may no longer be accurate.
