The Impact Bib is a newer program, and we understand that participants may have made a mistake in their registration. We encourage all participants to closely consider their registration options to ensure they’re choosing their preferred option.
If you would like to switch into or out of the Impact Bib event so you receive the ASICS souvenir shirt, you can click here to transfer your registration to a different sub-event.
Please note, all transfers are subject to space availability, and changes may not be able to be made based on sell-outs or short time frame leading into race day.

What is the Impact Bib Program?

By | Registration, Registration | No Comments
The Impact Bib Program gives participants the choice about whether to receive a race shirt as part of their race day experience. If a participant chooses the Impact Bib option, a donation will be made to a participating sustainability charity in lieu of a race shirt. On race day, your bib will have an Impact Bib sticker on it to celebrate your choice!
At Canada Running Series, we’re always looking for ways to reduce our environmental impact, and we want to provide our participants with that same ability. By offering the impact bib as a registration option, we allow our participants to be in choice about what they receive as part of their race experience.

What are the processing fees that I’m charged with my registration?

By | Registration, Registration | No Comments

Race Roster collects a fee on all transactions (processing fees) as this is an industry standard. Their team assists our races from beginning to end, and this fee allows them to provide meaningful customer support to all participants, covers merchant costs of processing the transaction, the technology costs of developing an online registration platform, includes event cancellation protection for participants in the case of an emergency, and ensures that the online race experience is seamless for all.

We understand that some people aren’t familiar with where these fees are spent, and may think they are an irrelevant added cost, though without them, we would not be able to host the events that we do.

A virtual race allows our participants to complete their race anywhere, and any time within the virtual race period. The virtual race period for the Toronto Waterfront Marathon is October 1st-31st. The online results platform allows runners to input their time and see their results compared to other runners. Race kits will be mailed to all Virtual participants.
