Road race · Wellington to Picton

The County Marathon

Billed as Canada's largest small-county marathon, drawing over 1,600 runners across a full, a half, a relay and a 5K, and the full course is a Boston qualifier.

What it is

A road-race weekend based at the Prince Edward Community Centre in Picton, in its 23rd year in 2026.

Four events: a full marathon, a half, a two-to-five-person relay and a 5K fun run.

The full marathon is a certified Boston Qualifier, which is why it draws serious runners from well outside the County.
