AO Races
There's something for everyone. Check out our five annual races.
McIntosh 10k
It all started with the McIntosh 10K. This race is a fast one taking you around some of the most flowy well maintained singletrack around. The McIntosh Run Watershed Trail system is truly a gem located in the heart of Halifax.
The Pick & Shovel Showdown
Ever wondered how far you can run in 8 hours? This one of a kind format is a great opportunity to test yourself. We'll help keep you moving and motivated with our extensive menu and supportive volunteers. The trails of The McDonald's Sports Park are the perfect place for a big run. To win you'll have to go hard from the start!
The Callous Crow
It's the toughest 21km race around these parts! This race will take you around the rugged singletrack of the Crowbar Lake Wilderness Trails. You'll be rewarded at the top of climbs with expansive views of this protected wilderness area. Are you up for the challenge?
The Seaside Scramble
A trail race and a beach party combined into one! This trail offers a wide range of terrain from boulders to boardwalks. Join us on a Friday evening and finish as the sun sets. After crossing the finish line grab some food from the BBQ and head to the beach for a dip.
Musquodoboit Mayhem
This race starts off on the abandoned rail bed of the Musquodoboit Trailway. Don't let this easy crusher dust lead-in fool you though. The Admiral's Lake Loop will challenge your trail running abilities and reward you with stunning views along the way.
Sissiboo Sizzler
The inaugural Sissiboo Sizzler will take place September 2024. This race features both a 11km and 22km option. This course will take you around the Upper Clements Trails located in the beautiful Annapolis Valley.
