The race categories are full marathon, half marathon, a marathon-length relay and half marathon walk.

Relay teams of two, three, or four runners are allowed. Each team member must register themselves—to indicate their agreement with the waiver— and the captain should register first.

There are five age categories for the marathon and half marathon runners and walkers based on their age on race day:

  • Masters P (Masters Plus): 50 to 59 years

  • Masters PP (Masters Plus Plus): 60 years to 69 years

  • Masters P3: 70 years and older

When is parental consent required?

Only runners aged 14 years or older on race day are eligible to register. Parental consent is required for all runners below the age of 18 years on race day. Young runners can register online, but must submit a signed copy of the parental consent form. This form will be sent to the parent or guardian by email after their child has been registered. You must scan and email the completed form to register@yukonmarathon.com. Please note that bib packages will not be handed out unless a signed parental consent form is received. 

Unfortunately the online registration system requires that the adult waiver be endorsed in order to complete the registration process. This  waiver will be voided upon receipt of the parental consent form.

Why is personal health information is collected??

As of 2024, we ask that you identify any known medical conditions, medications, allergies, or other information that may be pertinent to medical responders should you require emergency medical assistance. This information will help first responders provide you with better assistance in case of an emergency. The information will be collected when you register online and will be printed on a label affixed to the back of your bib. You will be asked to verify the medical information at bib pick-up.

All registration information is maintained by events.com and is subject to their privacy policy.
