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)!

My best friend and I did the race for the first time. We both had a blast. It was such a fun experience. Neither of us are runners, but that didn't matter. All the race coordinators were great and it was a great day. We'll be back for sure!!
Foam fun in Toronto
This was my first time doing an obstacle race never mind the foam. It was a blast- so much fun. Even the falling down & getting a mouthful of choking bubbles was fun. We loved cheering on those crazy people jumping off the high climber into the pit. Well organized. Definitely looking into another one this year. Bring on the foam!!!
Being a kid again
I absolutely loved the 5k foam fest in Toronto! I love all the obstacles, especially the 30 foot inflatable slide. When we finished I wanted to go another 5k. I can't wait till next year! 2016 will be in wasaga, looking forward to obstacles in the sand.
Can't Wait For 2016!
So happy that Foam Fest made it to Alberta in 2015! This event was a blast. The obstacles were well planned out and the venue was perfect for a 5k. We registered right away for 2016!!
this was my first obstacle course and it was a blast! I had a wonderful fun-filled day with friends and family.
1st Fun Run Ever - Im addicted
This was my first fun run ever. My sister wanted to do it, I hesitated until the last minute and then finally signed up and now we plan on attending every year. We had so much fun, the Sunday was not as busy so we could go at our own pace. we are addicted and I cannot wait until 2016! Thank you!
This was an amazing experience. I had a really great time with my friends!
It was a wonderful experience with my friends in celebration of us turning "40" that year!
great experience!
This was a great experience for myself and a group of coworkers! My son is stoked to run with me this year and I can't wait!!
It was my first run and it was outstanding! Loved the obstacles and the bodies of water to cross!! Let the foam begin!
