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)!

Most FUN 5km EVER
What a BLAST this was! from the Foam to the mud to the slides! You may need to conquer your fear of heights a tad but I did it and the adrenaline rush was awesome! What a GREAT fun event to do! Don't be afraid, it's for all shapes and sizes and fitness levels..... do what you can and have FUN! If you are registering to compete and get frustrated with some lineups, stay home... people are there to have fun, so relax! Highly recommend this to anybody looking for fun workout and group activity!
Great Team Building Experience
We were looking forward to this run for months, and it did not disappoint! Fun, Foam, Mud and Laughter throughout the 5KM race and obstacle course set against the backdrop of Vancouver Island's majestic scenery! We even made a highlight video of the day: http://youtu.be/rCLaT4Qgb4s This is a not to be missed event!
Amazing Experience
I went with my 10 year old niece and we had a blast together! We enjoyed it so much that now we want to do it every year together and now my other nieces want to join in too! It is a great memory making experience and lots of fun. Everything is well organized and as soon as you step onto the grounds you feel the excitement! We are glad that there is something like this in the world to participate in!
Awesome fun run! A little disappointed some great obstacles were closed but things happen!
Awesome

This was my first ever 5 KM. It was so much fun! I enjoyed the do it your own pace and the variety of obstacles and how it was geared toward everyone of age and size. I love it!
Great fun
First time runner and had a blast. Looking to repeat with friend in the next London run.
Opened Up A New Perspective
5K Foam Fest is one of those things I didn't know anything about but agreed to participate in because a friend was really excited about it. Little did I know this would be one of the funnest events I've attended! (and I'm sad I missed 2016 but am attending 2017) For someone who was not all to athletic at all (couch potato at the time) I was able to keep my own pace along with my teammates who were also "walkers". The obstacles were all fun, and mostly quite challenging. It pushed me to try something outside my comfort level and it changed my perspective on "that sort of thing" from that point on. Everyone doing the run was cheering everyone else on, everyone was patient, everyone was having a great time! One recommendation: don't wear shorts and a t-shirt/ wear leggings and a long-sleeve as it gets cold quick! The event was well-organized and surprisingly accessible for all athletic levels! Definitely give this 5 stars!
