Post-race food includes pie from JK Bakery Cafe, plus snacks and warm drinks. A "best sweater" contest will award prizes donated by Big Bear Trading Company.
Event rules and logistics include a requirement that runners aged 18 and older carry bear spray, leashed dogs are allowed at the Nordic Centre but not on course, and strollers are discouraged due to uneven trail terrain. Headphones are not permitted for safety. Medical staff and volunteers will be on site. Parking is available at the Canmore Nordic Centre; a Kananaskis Conservation Pass is required. Entries are non-refundable; transfers or deferrals are possible if arranged before October 1. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
