Weaselhead marks the final stop of the 5 Peaks Trail Running Series in Central Alberta, held at Weaselhead Flats on the city's southwest side. This trail race offers several options: Sport, Enduro, a timed 3K for children, and a free 1K kids event. The program accommodates adults seeking a challenging run, novice trail runners preferring a shorter course, and families introducing children to the race day atmosphere.
The course details are managed by 5 Peaks, not the registration page. The race starts from the Weaselhead Natural Area parking lot on 37 Street Southwest, placing the event within one of Calgary's natural areas rather than a downtown road network. The series maintains a Central Alberta Facebook group for timely updates, essential for trail events where course conditions and race-day schedules can shift near the event date. The race benefits Girls Forward and the MitoCanada Foundation, with registration including participant donations and charity fundraising.
