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)!

Anticipation
So looking forward to my first ever foam fest
Nanaimo Foam Fest
We had so much fun when we participated in this event a couple of years ago.
This was a fun way to start my entrance into the running world. I had so much fun the next day I signed up for next year.. I recommend this run to runners of all levels. There is nothing better than Mud Sweat and Foam!!!!
Fun!
This was the most fun I've ever had doing a 'mud run'. It challenged me, but was a blast all In one! Had a great time with my girls, and loved seeing all the families and all the drunk people geared up, helping each other and just having a blast!
Did it this year at Wasaga beach for the second time and had a blast. They kept some of the awesome obstacles from last year but also added some new things which I loved. Good atmosphere and well organized. Love the free pictures you get posted online after. Only thing I would say is that the course was very heavy with families and walkers and because the course was skinny in some places it is hard for those wanting to run to pass others. And it can get pricey if you want to sign up the whole family !
I ran this course this year it was my first time and I will definitely be back! It was tons of fun a good atmosphere, family friendly and lots of foam! The course is perfect to have fun and get a workout, it’s just long enough that you don’t have to be an athlete to conquer it! I would recommend to anyone to try it out!
So much fun!
I did foam fest at the Sunpeaks location in 2016 and it was the most fun I've had with my friends!! Wanted to do it this year but never got the chance to.. hoping to get to in 2018!
Loads of fun and Foam
Such a fun little run. I participated in Leduc 2017. 100% will go again!!!!
