A new event, the Millarville "Run To The Farmers' Market" Half Marathon, opened for registrations today.
This is a 21.1 km, point-to-point half marathon starting in Black Diamond at 7 am on Saturday, June 16, going through Turner Valley and then using paved backcountry roads to finish at the Millarville Farmers' Market as it opens for its 30th season.
Lots of food, music and shopping at the end of the race at Alberta's second largest outdoor Market.
Swag will include a clay-fired finishers medal courtesy of one of the Market vendors.
There will be shuttle bus service before and after the race between Millarville Racetrack and Black Diamond.
Details and registration links for participants and volunteers are here
