FRIGHTENING 5ER IS BACK ON
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 23, 2025
Registration is now open!
Come and join us for the spookiest 5K you will ever run: experience FortWhyte’s trails at night, filled with creepy spooks and surprises, and celebrate at the finish line with snacks, candy and a post-race beer.
Costumes are not required but strongly recommended!
All participants of this fun run event will receive a limited edition hooded sweatshirt, a finishers’ medal, post-race chilli and buns and a free beer or post-race beverage.
Signed up, but can’t make the event? You are welcome to transfer your registration to another participant by clicking the link below. Transfers must be completed before midnight on October 20th. There are NO transfers between start times.
*** Please note that with all our events, our transfer process is set up to avoid individuals selling fake bibs. When a transfer is initiated, the new participant will accept the transfer and pay for their registration through the website. Then the original participant will be refunded directly through Race Roster. ***
