The First Hour is a welcoming trail running event held at the scenic Goodrich-Loomis Conservation Area in Castleton, Ontario, Canada. As the opening race in the Friday Night Happy Hour series, it features an 8-kilometer course with varied terrain including hills, rocks, roots, and mossy log bridges, offering a challenging yet community-focused experience for runners of all levels. While there are no aid stations on the course, water is provided at the start/finish area.
The event emphasizes fun and camaraderie over competition, with manual timing and no placement awards. Participants completing all three Happy Hour races earn a special medal and prize. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
