Tuff Pumpkin Edmonton

Tuff Pumpkin Edmonton is a family friendly running festival held at Northeast River Valley Park in Edmonton. The event offers pumpkin themed distances: a 2k Sugar Pumpkin (walk or run, all ages; under-5 free with a paid adult and a keepsake medal), a 5k Pumpkin Run (timed options), a Pumpkin Haul (5k carrying a pumpkin), and a Team Haul (5k as a team). Participants pick out a pumpkin from the patch and take on the run/walk or haul.

The course invites runners and walkers to enjoy autumn scenery with a festive atmosphere, games, and a warm-up by the MC. Afterward, celebrate with pumpkin carving, axe throwing, and selfies. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
