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)!

Who doesn't love fun and mud!
After doing the Saskatoon Foam Fest I talked my father into joining me for the Wasaga Beach race! And wow did he love it! We had such a great time, the race was amazing on the beach, AND he even signed us up for next years.... so I guess I'm travelling home again!
Great event!!
We had so much fun -- took our three kids 9,10 and 12 and everyone had a great time and got really really dirty!!

Hi there
I am submitting this as my opportunity to try and win free tickets for the June 2017 foam fest in Sunpeak's British Columbia.I have unfortunately have not had the pleasure of running in the Foam Fest Fest and therefore I am using this as my opportunity to try and win free tickets for the June 2017 foam fest in Sun peaks British Columbia. I was registered to run in it last year but due to a terrible accident I had three months prior where I broke my ankle in two places I was unable to attend. I really want to attend next years race as it is on my bucket list. The last two years have been challenging for me, as I left my marriage of 20 years, lost 140 pounds and I have found significant stress relief and running these 5 km races now. They allow me to be so free and passionate about my health and a really fun supportive atmosphere. I unfortunately deal with a lot of health problems, and am on medical permanent disability and therefore this limits my financial abilities so to win free tickets for this event would mean the world to Me!!!!
Absolutely one of the best experiences I've ever had!! It was challenging yet extremely fun! I did the run with 4 other moms and with the help of the team we all finished and accomplished personal tasks that we set for ourselves :) Hoping to bring my son to next years event!
Sudsy fun!
I came out bruised, battered, wet and muddy. Best day this summer! I signed up for 2017 as soon as it was open. I've convinced all my friends and my 8-year old nephew to join me next summer. It's a great course because there are plenty of challenges and for anyone who isn't sure of their ability, it's very easy to pass an obstacle, especially if you end up in a line up. Some of the obstacles repeat, so you don't have to feel guilty if you pass. You can walk, you can run, there is truly something for everyone.
More food options for after the race would be nice, it was a long wait for the Poutine truck.
Can't wait for next summer!
AWESOME!
Was a great experience!! Obsticles were nicely placed. A couple rinse stations would be great for when getting sand or soap in or near the eyes ;)
Loved it and will be back next year for sure!! Watch for Sparkle Ponies!
Best 5K I've done! Laughed a lot with my friend and we will do it for sure next year!! Loved all the obstacles!
Sun Peaks
My kids and i ran the Sun Peaks ran in June. We had the most fun we have had together as a family in a long time. We laughed and we froze. LOL. It was cold but we still had a great time. My wife got sick and couldn't go but she watched. Can't wait to go again this year.
