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)!

Amazing!
I was so excited to do Foam Fest that my first year I signed up and ran it by myself. The next year I decided to run it twice (once by myself and once with a group of ladies)!

Partiscipated in the 2018 Foam Fest event in corner brook, by far the best run I’ve registered for. Between how organized the event was and the absolutely beautiful weather we had that day it made for a great event. Since the Foam Fest run I have continued to recommend this run to everyone I know and people I don’t know as well. You won’t be dissatisfied!
Lots of fun and great for kids and adult kids.
Fun challenge
Challenging but fun! Great group activity!
Great experience! Would definitely recommend!
A Muddy Good Time In Red Deer
Well organized, friendly crew, and oodles of fun!
Most fun you can have in the mud!!
This was my 3rd year doing the run and my 10 year old granddaughter came with me this year!!! Before we were halfway she was smiling from ear to ear and saying she can't wait to do it again next year!!! Tickets are already bought for 2019....we are committed!!! Love it
Great experience
5km Foam Fest is a great experience. There are a variety of obstacles which add an extra challenge and excitement to the event. If you don't wish to complete a particular obstacle you can easily go around it and continue on. The only thing confusing part of the day is trying to find some of the station's either before or after the event. For example finding where to drop off your things before the event and finding where to rinse off and change afterwards. This can be easily fixed with more signs and/or a map of the area.
Overall a fantastic day!
