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.

  • 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. (nl)
