- The Toronto Marathon, held annually on the first Sunday of May, is a race from Yonge and Sheppard, in the north end of Toronto, to Exhibition Place, via Humber Bay Park. The origins of the event trace back to 1977, and the race was initially called the Canadian International Marathon. In 2003, its name was changed to the Toronto Marathon. It was held previously on the third Sunday in October, the first Sunday after Canadian Thanksgiving, for 16 consecutive years. Because of concerns that another event was being held three weeks prior and led to too many road closures, as well as pressure from a major financial institution, the Toronto Marathon was moved to the first Sunday of May in 2012. The event was temporarily held mid-May in 2011, due to other events in the City of Toronto that year. In addition to a full marathon, the event also includes a half marathon, a 10K run, a 5K run, and an eight-person relay across the marathon course. The marathon meets international standards and is a qualifier for the Boston Marathon. The event is a member of AIMs and Athletics Ontario and meets their criteria. The race featured women marathoners prior to the opening of the Olympic competition for the women. In 1984, Anne Hird won the race as winds gusted and a large field pursued her. Regularly attracting 8,000 to 10,000 participants from over 55 countries, and every Province and Territory in Canada, the event is also a major fundraiser for many charities. A Runners Expo is held on the Friday and Saturday at the Queen Elizabeth building on the Exhibition Grounds immediately prior to race day and features over 60 vendors as well as the race kit pick-up for event participants.

- De Marathon van Toronto (Toronto Marathon) is een hardloopwedstrijd van 42,195 km, een marathon, die jaarlijks wordt gehouden in Toronto (Canada). De wedstrijd, niet te verwarren met de Toronto Waterfront Marathon, werd aanvankelijk gelopen in de maand oktober. Tegenwoordig wordt de marathon, omdat de Waterfront Marathon jaarlijks in het najaar plaatsvindt, in mei gelopen en sinds 2012 op de eerste zondag van mei. Het wedstrijdparcours begint op Mel Lastman Square in het noorden van Toronto en loopt tot aan Queen's Park. De Canadian International Marathon werd voor het eerst gehouden in 1995. In 2003 veranderde de naam in Toronto Marathon. Het evenement kent een marathon, een halve marathon, een 5 km en een acht persoonsrace (marathon). (nl)
