About the event

The Virtual Road Throwdown

We believe there is still opportunity to compete, improve, and challenge each other despite the obstacles we face. Join the Virtual Road Throwdown and compete virtually against runners from Edmonton and surrounding areas on a preset course on Riverside Road.

You can choose when you want to THROWDOWN and you can THROWDOWN as often as you like.That's the beauty of a virtual race, you can challenge the preset course whenever you like!We do however insist you stay safe by observing the Enhanced Public Health Measures set out by the Government of Alberta, Athletics Alberta's Safe Return to Play Protocols   PERKS

All participants will be able to print a commemorative bib from the Find a Participant Page and race certificate that they can share on social media.

All participants will be able to post their results to the Results Page and climb the Challenge Leaderboard.All participants will be able to post their race photos to the Photos Page.
OPTIONS

10km - out and back course. Half marathon - two loop course.Marathon - invite only - contact the race director via the questions button below. 
COURSE

The course runs along Riverside Road and is 2 loops for the half marathon and an out and back for the 10km with a different start / finish line outlined on the course map.

As per the advice we've all had from public health officials, if you do happen to show up and find the route you were hoping to throwdown on is quite busy the best thing to do is to choose to come back another time.Maintain a minimum distance of 2 meters between other runners if passing is necessary and show courtesy to other runners at all times while running your event.
