Parks2Pints Road Race
The third annual Park to Pints road race in Canmore offers community-focused 5 km and 10 km options on a marked and professionally timed course. The event is presented by Strides Canmore, Salomon, and CAMBA, and proceeds support a local trail organization. Registration fees listed are $40 for the 5 km and $45 for the 10 km, with prices increasing on April 15th at noon. Registration is handled through Zone 4, and entries include race entry, professional timing, a marked course, and a finisher beer or non-alcoholic beverage.
Courses are described as a Canmore classic with a mix of hills and downhill sections. The 10 km course has been changed to a double-loop layout to reduce total ascent and remove major road crossings from the previous out-and-back. Spectator zones are planned at the end of the first loop and at several access points along the course. All courses will close with a sweep; racers behind the sweep will be directed toward the finish and accompany the sweepers.
Post-race activity includes a beer garden, live music, and food from local vendors including a curry dinner from Authentic Indian. Volunteers are requested for set-up, on-course support, medical, and traffic control; volunteers receive an entry to the 2028 Park to Pints and a drink ticket, and shifts are eligible for high school volunteer hours.
