Dino Dash - Northwest Calgary

Dino Dash is an annual running event held at Foothills Athletic Park in Northwest Calgary, supporting the University of Calgary Dinos Track and Field and Cross Country teams. Established in 2004, it has raised significant funds for scholarships, competition opportunities, and team uniforms. The event features multiple race distances including 5 km and 10 km runs, with stroller-friendly options and a kids' event introducing young participants to track and field activities like running, jumping, and throwing.

Participants receive a technical running shirt, finisher medal, and enjoy post-race food and a beer garden. The race is chip-timed and fosters a community atmosphere celebrating athletic development. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
