Millarville Farmers’ Market is located at Millarville Racetrack, a century-old rural facility about 35 minutes southwest of Calgary or 20 minutes west of Okotoks. From Calgary, take Highway 22X west until you see a “Turner Valley” sign. Turn south on Highway 22. Follow Highway 22 south until you start seeing the many “Millarville Farmers’ Market” signs guiding you onto Highway 549, then 192 St.
Each participant will receive a unique finishers medal, a commemorative, logoed, t-shirt along with race bags with Farmers’ Market related swag. And, of course, everyone registering enjoys an awesome run through the Foothills of the Rockies to finish at southern Alberta’s largest outdoor market.
Participants can park at the Farmers’ Market finish line and take a complimentary pre-race shuttle bus to the start line in Diamond Valley (formerly Black Diamond), then run the race back to their vehicle. OR, you can park in Diamond Valley and, after you’ve run to the Farmers’ Market, you can take a post-race shuttle bus back to the start line.
Absolutely. Invite friends and family to meet you at the finish line, then spend the rest of the morning together enjoying the shopping, food and music of southern Alberta’s largest outdoor market.
The Millarville “Run To The Farmers’ Market” Half Marathon is a fundraising/awareness project of the registered non-profit Millarville Racing & Agricultural Society. Net profits from our event go towards facility maintenance and program development, benefiting our community into our next century. The MRAS has roots older than the Province of Alberta itself, with the first Millarville Races being held on this site in 1905 and our grounds serving as a meeting hub for our rural community ever since. The Ag Society has a volunteer base of more than 300 and annually hosts the Millarville Farmers’ Market, the Millarville Christmas Market, the 116th Annual Millarville Races, the 115th Annual Priddis & Millarville Fair, and the annual Millarville Christmas Market.
