A home course. A full test.
The BMO Vancouver Marathon runs 42.2km through the streets, seawall, and parks of one of the most scenic race courses in North America. Downtown energy, long stretches of coast, the quiet middle kilometres along the water, and a finish where the ocean meets the skyline.
This Artifact captures the complete official course in sculpted terrain and precision detail — your race rendered as a 3D piece you can see, hold, and keep on the wall.
About the course
The full marathon is the longer test. Twice the distance of the half, the same scenery rendered at a different scale. The seawall section through Stanley Park stretches further. The middle kilometres along the water settle into the kind of pace where the race becomes mental. The final stretch back into the city is where the skyline returns and the finish gets close.
Every Artifact for this race is built from the official course data. The route is fixed. What you customize is everything around it.
Choose your format
Artifact 8.5×11 — $89 Standard frame. Clean, minimal display of the official course.
Artifact 12×16 — $179 Standard frame with integrated medal holder. The course and the finisher medal as a single piece.
Artifact 13×30 — $239 Panoramic frame with medal and race bib mounted alongside the course. The full race-day artifact, end to end.
Artifact 20×20 — $269 Deepset square frame, built around the medal as the centrepiece. Thicker 15cm map for visual balance. The version that earns its space on the wall.

Why it matters
Every marathon has a moment.
For Vancouver, it's the long stretch along the seawall. The quiet sections where the pace settles. The final kilometres where the skyline comes back into view and the finish gets close.
It's a race that tests discipline as much as fitness.
This piece exists so the effort doesn't live only in a finishing time.

FAQ
Do I need to upload anything? No. The course is the official BMO Vancouver Marathon route — we already have it. Add your runner name, finish time, and any stats you want included at checkout, and we'll handle the rest.
Can I add a medal and bib? The 12×16 includes a medal mount. The 13×30 includes both a medal mount and a race-bib mount. The 20×20 features a deepset frame designed to recess and showcase the medal as the centrepiece.
Did you do the half marathon too? Yes — see the BMO Vancouver Half Marathon Artifact. Other distances from race weekend are listed in Event Artifacts.
How long until I receive it? Typically 2–3 weeks from design approval for the 8.5×11, 12×16, and 13×30. Allow 3–4 weeks for the 20×20 deepset format.
What if I want a fully custom piece instead of the official course? Custom pieces — including your training routes, multi-race compositions, and pieces with embedded NFC tags linking back to your Strava — are available in the Custom Artifact collection.
