The Scotiabank Calgary Marathon is an annual race held in Calgary, Alberta, Canada . As the longest running marathon event in Canada,[1] it has a certified running distance of 26 miles and 385 yards (42.195 km). Last year's[when?] marathon was sold out and approximately 9,000 people are expected to participate this year.[when?][2] The marathon is certified by Athletics Canada and is a registered AIMS Marathon, and therefore can be used as a qualifying marathon race.

In late 2013, it was announced that the Calgary Marathon would also host a one-time only 50 kilometer ultramarathon in 2014 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the event. All finishers in the 50k event will receive a commemorative beer glass from the title sponsor of the race, Wild Rose Brewery.[3]
