Flatlanders Road Race

About the Event

Flatlanders Road Race returns to Regina, Saskatchewan on Saturday, October 3, 2026. The event offers a wide array of distances for runners from all walks of life, including the half-marathon, 10K, and 5K races along with new additions like the 50km Ultra Marathon and an exciting Kids Mile race designed to cater to younger participants.
Race morning at Douglas Park Track finds the atmosphere bustling yet serene. Participants can expect a firm but slightly soft trail surface underfoot as they navigate through the local community’s park setting. The conditions are ideal for running, with temperatures typically in the mid-10s Celsius and low UV index making it comfortable to participate without overexposure.
The Flatlanders Road Race has been a cornerstone of Regina's sporting calendar since 1985, drawing thousands each year. This year marks its 32nd edition, supporting local charities through race proceeds. The event fosters community spirit by bringing together families and friends for an enjoyable day out on the track.
Course venues include both road sections within the neighborhood leading to Douglas Park Track as well as a dedicated loop around the park itself. Race participants will start from the Canada Games Athletic Complex (Douglas Park Track) with staggered starts to ensure smoother flow through the courses, particularly in the 5K and 10K segments where two-way traffic is expected.
Race conditions on race day are anticipated to be firm but comfortable, with temperatures ranging between 9°C to 12°C. The low UV index suggests a gentle sun that won’t cause undue discomfort for participants, although runners should still prepare against unexpected changes in weather like light rain or slight wind.
