Overlander Sports Quarter Marathon
Race Day Weather
Comfortable temps, big temp swing
Mild 59°F temps at gun time mean comfortable early miles without overheating risk. Temps will climb significantly to 75°F by later miles, so expect fading conditions as the race progresses. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing. Moderate humidity at 70% is worth noting for effort level, especially in later miles.

Race Info
The Quarter Marathon is a 10.55 km option that starts and finishes at Overlander Sports in central Yellowknife. The official 2026 map shows a loop west of downtown that passes two lakes, with aid stations on the route and a bathroom at the lakeside station. Elevation on the course runs from about 175 m to 210 m, with the highest ground around the middle of the loop. It shares the 8:00 AM start with the longer distances.
