The McIntosh 10K

McIntosh Run Single Track is a great community project that The Macintosh Run Watershed Association have developed here in the HRM. We are thrilled to host the first ever trail race on these well maintained granite trails here in our backyard.

This 10km race will be mostly single track, running a fun loop through the MRWA maintained trail system with a quick out and back section catering to you speedy road folks. These trails are hard surfaced with just enough roots and rocks to keep things interesting. It's a unique setting that was damaged by a forest fire years back which offers up views of the Halifax Harbour and Flat lake. This race course is accommodating to all abilities, from folks running their first trail race, fast roadies, to your toughest trail runners.

We look forward to seeing everyone who can make it to the inaugural All-Out Trail Racing event. We are so lucky to have great trail access in Halifax and we can't wait to host some community based races. We're looking forward to having some fun with you all.

A HUGE thanks to Altra and Smartwool for sponsoring our inaugural event and providing some awesome prizing including shoes, shirts, and more. We would also like to thank our local partners Aerobics First, Sportwheels, and The 5K Cafe for their additional support and prizing.

Given the short notice of this race there will be no refunds. You can transfer to another runner until November 3rd @12pm for $1.95 directly through Race Roster.

Sign in will open at 7:30am on race day and close at 8:45am so please show up a bit early to get your bib. The race will start at 9am sharp. We will be sending out an email to all competitors with more details on the course, parking, sponsors, etc.

We will be capping participation at 100 runners. There is no mandatory gear for this race. We only ask that you to stay on the course, be nice, and have FUN!
