The 5K Foam Fest obstacle races, mud run, and OCR information, distance, cost, dates, calendar, discounts, obstacles, reviews, and more
Get ready to get FILTHY clean with 5k Foam Fest!
What in the world could possibly be more fun than running through a course chuck full of mud, foam, and obstacles? Running through it with your friends, of course! Check out our video to see how much fun you can have together! Well, you’ll need bodies. So grab your friends, neighbors, co-workers, and family members and get them registered! Your team can be as big as you want. And remember, the only way to make sure you all get to run in the same wave is to register early and together, so don’t wait! Otherwise we can’t guarantee that you’ll be flying around in foam with your friends.
If you are looking to beat a world record or run so hard that you nearly lose bowel control then you might be disappointed. The 5K Foam Fest is not a hardcore race it is a FUNCORE race. The goal is to have fun while running. We will have a race clock at the end of the race so you can internally take note how fast you ran the race but you will not be given timing chips and we encourage you to focus on the fun aspect of the race rather than the speed.
It is a festival after all!! So be sure to come early and bring your friends and family. We’ve got several activities including our foam pit, mini inflatable obstacle course, and bounce house. We even have activities for the kids at heart! Like our Skyfall (A 25’ drop onto a airbag/stunt bag)!

5k Foam FUN Fest Red Deer
We had a group of 4 and we all work out on the regular bases, This was a new thing for all of us and we had a blast ! you can choose whether you want to push your self hard or take it easy and just be silly, we did a bit of both but its still good for everyone of all ages and strength levels.
be prepared to get wet and muddy and cold at times, dont wear anything that you want to keep,
They were very organized and fast. The crazier the costume/outfit the better it was or at least it seemed that way.
the showers at the end to wash off were very cold and the line up was a bit long all the time was the only bummer when you are doing a early morning run and you are wet and cold.
We all had a blast and will do it again and again ! BLAST
We had a team of four and we all had a ball. Very fun race - a little challenge and a whole lot of fun!
An amazing mother-daughter activity!

Foam Run London, Ontario
This was really fun. Nice to do with your kids. Low stress, run at your own pace.
Lots of fun!
I had a great time! Only thing is the lines for the obstacles were very very long. Other than that, awesome!
Lots of fun even though it was a little chilly and the waits for the lilypads and tube obstacles were really long and a couple of the obstacles were out of commission by the time we got to them in the afternoon. I'm hoping some of the glitches will be ironed out next year. Looking forward to it.
Had a fantastic run last year!!!!
