Grit & Grind Trail Race: Dunrobin Edition
The event takes place on July 29, 2026 at Sheila McKee Park in Dunrobin. It offers two marked trail races.
- 5 km
- 2 km (kids run)
The 5 km runs off pavement over natural terrain. The course is flat overall but includes roots, dirt, rocks, and uneven surfaces that require attention. The kids 2 km is designed for young runners able to follow the course independently; a parent or guardian may run alongside if needed.
Registration includes a commemorative Grit & Grind Trail Race medal unless the Green Bib option is chosen, a personalized race bib (names printed for registrations before July 20), professional chip timing with results, and post-race snacks and beverages. Optional add-ons include a technical shirt and an iTab ribbon hanger. The Green Bib does not include a medal and directs a portion of the fee to Camp Misquah.
Camp Misquah is a non-profit summer residential camp for youth and adults with developmental disabilities in the Ottawa region.
