About 2026 McNabs Half Marathon
The 2026 McNabs Half Marathon brings runners to McNabs Island for a trail day with a strong coastal identity. Runners travel to and from the island by speed boat, follow the event's Fort to Fort theme, and can choose from 7K, 14K, or half marathon options in the same island setting.
Urban Trail Racing positions McNabs as an approachable trail experience for runners making the jump from road to trail. The event also builds in a post-race beach social and sits within a race series that supports local park associations and Halifax Search and Rescue.
