ABOUT US

MultiSport Canada has hosted hundreds of Triathlons, Duathlons, Give-It-A-Try and Kids of Steel races in Ontario over the last eight years. The fastest growing triathlon series in Canada, MultiSport Canada's goal is to actively promote the sport of triathlon, duathlon and running races which we believe ultimately leads to active and healthy lifestyles. We are committed to presenting you with a top quality race every time you enter. MultiSport Canada is not just a series of races but an organization that gives back to the sport you love and to the communities in which you race. Our association with the Joe's Team Triathlon event helped raise over $961,000 in 2009 in support of cancer research at the Princess Margaret Hospital .

By expanding our Running Series to offer four unique events we will enhance the race experience for all of our participants. With our Island Girl races on the Toronto Island we believe we have created running and walking events to support the growing number of female racers and we are proud to present this opportunity for women to participate in a race they can call their own. We bring the Island Girl theme up to Wasaga Beach with our Island Girls and Guys Half Marathon and 5K. A lively, Caribbean-style running event happening along side the world's longest fresh water beach!
