About Kingston Limestone Race Weekend 2025

The Kingston Limestone Race Weekend, hosted by the Kingston Road Runners Association, is the city’s largest annual running event offering a variety of race distances including the 2K Tom Compton Memorial Run for kids, the Waterfront 10K, the 5K, and the Historic Half Marathon. The event is volunteer-driven and supports local charities such as the Boys and Girls Club South East and the Start2Finish Reading and Running Program.

Runners experience unique courses that feature historic landmarks like the Kingston Penitentiary and Rockwood Asylum, with all races on paved roads. The event takes place across two days in late April and attracts over 1,000 participants annually.
