www.cyclingnews.comI don’t have live updates right now, but here’s what’s generally known about Ottawa Race Weekend and how to find the latest news.
What Ottawa Race Weekend is
- Ottawa Race Weekend, also known as Tamarack Ottawa Race Weekend, is Canada’s largest road-running event, usually held the last weekend of May in Ottawa, Ontario, featuring multiple races (including the Ottawa Marathon) and a large health and fitness expo.[3]
- The event has historically drawn tens of thousands of participants and supports fundraising for local charities through Run Ottawa.[3]
Where to check for the latest news
- Run Ottawa’s official site and their Latest News page are the best sources for timely announcements, schedule changes, and expo details.[6]
- The event’s 2026 participant guide and Expo/Getting There sections on Run Ottawa’s site provide up-to-date logistics for race weekend, including expo hours and transit options.[5]
- Local Canadian media outlets (CBC Ottawa, CTV Ottawa) typically cover major announcements or disruptions affecting the race weekend, such as postponements, cancellations, or safety advisories.[1]
Illustrative example of what to look for
- If there’s a disruption (e.g., weather, public health advisories, or transit changes), Run Ottawa would usually publish a dedicated news post or update on their site, and the participant guide would reflect any altered expo or race day logistics.[5][6]
