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 tackle a challenging course with approximately 200 meters of elevation gain, ascending to the summit of Nuttby Mountain—the highest runnable point on mainland Nova Scotia. The event offers both a competitive timed race and a non-competitive walk, with chip timing for all.
Runners can expect a tough uphill route with no significant downhills, prizes for top finishers, and a festive finish line featuring local vendors and Tatamagouche Brewery. The race emphasizes environmental responsibility and community involvement. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
