Parks2Pints Road Race
Strides Canmore, Salomon and CAMBA present the third annual Parks2Pints, a community road race in Canmore that returns proceeds to a local trail organization. The event offers two marked and professionally timed distances and on-course spectator access.
Distances
- 5 km
- 10 km run as a double loop this year with spectator zones after the first loop
Course details note a mix of uphill and downhill sections. The 10 km route was revised to reduce overall vertical gain and remove pinch points and major road crossings while keeping multiple spectator access points.
Included services and sustainability Registration includes race entry, professional timing, a professionally marked course, and a finisher beer or nonalcoholic beverage. Organizers encourage bringing a reusable cup to aid stations and participants are asked to bring their own race nutrition to support a zero waste approach.
Community and volunteers Postrace activities include a beer garden, live music from The Ducks, and several local food trucks including a curry dinner option. Volunteer roles are needed for setup, on-course support, medical and traffic control; volunteers receive entry to the 2027 event and a drink ticket, and shifts may qualify for high school volunteer hours.
