Mississauga Half Marathon : Official Thread

Last year was my first time out to it so can't comment on the route change, but overall liked it.  Was surprised how efficient the shuttle back to the mall was, although that was one damp and stinky bus!

It's more downhill than flat.

It's a fast course. Nothing really difficult.

The only challenging thing I noticed last year was that when you arrived close to the lake, you're not quite there yet, you still have 2/3 kms to go and I found this challenging to my mind.

Other than that, I just recall one or two hills, no too difficult, and then, down, down and down

I didn't quite liked the shuttle system for the finish line but it's my personal opinion

It busy at the end, 5000+ people trying to get on buses.  But they manage.

Its a net downhill, so a really fast course.  Theres one gradual climb, and one really steep one, other than that its flat and down :P 

Not the most scenic run but they do take you through some parks and you finish at the water.  Probably as good as it gets in 'Sauga

FYI I am pretty sure the goodlife Toronto marathon is the same day again.

i'm getting pretty excited for this!  I do hope that it will get warmer.

This will be my first half marathon so i'm just looking to finish!

This sunday I have a 20km run planned, then taper. 

Good luck to everyone racing tomorrow!

I'll see you at the finish line!
