1500m Night
The Vancouver edition of 1500m Night is now in it's fourth year and it is already a favourite among distance runners!
Join us at Rashpal Dhillon Track & Field Oval on June 18th, 2025 for an exciting night of middle distance racing! From local competitors to international level qualifiers and from junior development up to masters, we have a section for you to race to a fast time!
6:30pm - Junior Development (14 & under) 1200m
7:00pm - Open 1500m
8:00pm - High Performance 1500m
We will alternate between Mens and Womens sections to provide comparable focus under late-evening conditions conducive to high performance racing.
Final schedule (with a start time for each section) and section assignments will be sent to all entries at least 24 hours in advance of the meet.
Tentative Schedule:
The cut-off for HP sections is 4:45 (Female) and 4:00 (Male). Open seed times should be 4:45.00/4:00.00 and slower, using real performances or reasonable estimates. Entry into HP sections requires performances under 4:45 (Female) and 4:00 (Male), including proof of performance, since March 1, 2024. Seeds will be checked automatically online, using the Athletics Canada database and, if necessary, will be checked manually.
Please see the '1500m Night Meet Information' document for more information on exemptions and conversions.
High Performance Sections:
We are looking to provide pacers for the top-3 sections of both men and women. Pacers for HP sections will be paid based on the section they pace and how far they go. Pacers should always be coordinated with the meet director, in part to ensure all participants in a given race have access to the same information.
Athletes interested in pacing should email the meet director at leslie.sexton@gmail.com
