Unfortunately, we only ship virtual race kits to Canadian addresses. If you live outside Canada and wish to participate, you can enter the Canadian mailing address of a friend or family member who can accept the kit on your behalf.
Participants will be able to input their distances and times from June 1-30. Once you have completed your activity, you will track it on the Race Roster Results Platform by following these steps:
– Login to your Participant Dashboard
– Locate the Vancouver Half Marathon on the right side of your participant dashboard
– Select the [+Add Activity] button under your virtual race
– Add the distance and duration of your run and/or walk as well as the time you started this activity
– Select ‘Submit Activity’
Domestic Shipping is included in the cost of each single-distance virtual entry fee and covers packaging, labour and postage/courier fees. Participants will be responsible for a $10 shipping charge if a race kit is returned to CRS due to a registrant error in their address. We only ship to Canadian addresses.
If you are registered for a virtual only event, Domestic shipping is included in the cost of all virtual registrations and your race kit will be shipped to the address entered at point of registration.
No, sample cans are only available for runners who are physically present to receive them
You can do the full distance at once or break it into smaller increments over several days. Once complete, you can input your results on the Race Roster Results Page. Please note, if you do smaller increments, you will need to input your cumulative time manually.
Virtual Race Safety Tips
- Avoid high traffic pedestrian and vehicle areas. Run or walk close to home in your neighbourhood during a quieter time of day.
- Complete your run on a treadmill, if this is an option that is available to you and that you would prefer.
- Wear appropriate clothing. Be visible and dress for the weather.
- Bring water and/or nutrition if you’re planning a longer route.
- Carry a cell phone with you during your virtual race and tell someone the route you’re running in case of an emergency.
No. Canada Running Series Race Credits do not have an expiry date.
We cannot wait to get your shirt and medal to you! For anyone who chose a virtual only distance, your race kit will be shipped to you in June. Please keep an eye on your email for more updates as they’re available.
