Seawall Classic

About the Event

The Seawall Classic returns to Vancouver, British Columbia on October 17th, 2026. A beloved event among local runners for over a decade, it attracts participants from far and wide who are drawn by the scenic route along the city's iconic seawall.
Race morning in Stanley Park is crisp with mist lingering off the water. The air carries the scent of pine and salt as you prepare to lace up your shoes. Runners start at Coal Harbour Village and weave through the park, taking in views of False Creek before completing their journey back to Granville Island. The 10K race course offers a firm but slightly soft surface underfoot, making for an engaging yet comfortable run.
The tradition of this event is rich; it has been running since 2014 and now boasts over one thousand participants each year. All proceeds go towards supporting local scholarships in the arts and sciences, ensuring that community spirit remains at the core of its mission.
This race takes place on a course venue that spans from Coal Harbour Village to Stanley Park's Seawall path. Participants will start just off Granville Street near the Granville Island ferry terminal and finish back there after their 10K or 1km run. The elevation changes are minimal, with only slight undulations along the way. There are no aid stations planned for this event.
On race morning, the temperature is expected to hover around an average of 10.5°C, with a low of 7.8°C and a high of 13.1°C. The humidity level will be at 84.9%, making it feel slightly cooler than what the thermometer reads. With winds averaging 9.4 km/h, there might be some noticeable gusts as you run along the waterfront. Fortunately, the weather is forecasted to offer six and a half hours of sunshine, with only 7.7mm of rainfall predicted for that day.
