About the race
Picture Me In A Tree is a trail run and walk held in Centreville, Nova Scotia, on Saturday September 12, 2026, that raises funds for the Centreville Community Park. The event offers multiple options:
- 5 km run

Entry is limited to the first 125 registered participants overall, with specific limits for each event. Age rules: participants must be at least 12 years old for the 5 km and 10 km events, and at least 16 years old for the 6 hour event.
Course details note an 80% shaded trail surface composed of roughly 70% packed dust gravel, 15% gravel track and 15% natural trail or groomed grass. The loop is marked every 500 metres and each 2.5 km loop has about 11 metres of elevation change. Runners are asked to pass on the left and walkers keep right to reduce congestion.
Race kits include a bib, safety pins and numbered lap sticks for the 5 km and 10 km; 6 hour laps are recorded manually. There is a cupless aid station supplying water and Gatorade; participants should bring a personal cup or bottle. First aid and indoor washrooms are available at the start/finish area. Parking is provided at two lots; spectators with dogs must keep them on leash and bicycles are not allowed on the course. Finishers receive a medallion and overall awards are given in the running events; the 5 km walk is not eligible for overall awards. A reception meal is included and a photo opportunity is available at a hollow tree stump on the course. If the organizer cancels the date, the event will be rescheduled to the following weekend; a 50% refund is available for cancellations notified by August 12, 2026. Race transfers and optional registration insurance are supported. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
