The Nasty Nuttby Killer 5K, held in the Cobequid Hills of Colchester County, Nova Scotia, is known as the hardest, hottest, and highest 5K in the region. Participants run or walk a challenging course ascending approximately 200 meters in elevation to the summit of Nuttby Mountain, the highest runnable point on mainland Nova Scotia. The event offers both competitive timed races and non-competitive walks, with chip timing for all.
Runners can expect a tough uphill course with no significant downhills, and prizes for top finishers. The race emphasizes environmental responsibility, features local vendors, and concludes with a festive finish line experience including local craft beer.
