The Calgary Marathon is an annual race held in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. First held in 1963, and annually since 1971,[1] it has a certified running distance of 26.219 mi (42.195 km). The marathon is certified by Athletics Canada and is a registered AIMS Marathon, and therefore can be used as a qualifying marathon race.

In 2014, a record 15,000 participants came out to celebrate Canada's longest running marathon turning 50, including 500 participants who competed in the first-ever 50KM Ultra. In 2022, Calgary Marathon welcomed Servus Credit Union as the title sponsor. In 2023, the finish line was relocated to Enmax Park.

In 2024, Calgary Marathon celebrated its 60th "Diamond" Anniversary with a one-time-only 60 km Ultra road race and finisher medals that featured two "diamonds". In 2024 the marathon handed out non-alcoholic beer at aid stations becoming the first North American marathon to do so at an official aid station.[2]
