River's Edge Running Series
About
We are a not-for-profit organization whose primary objective is to encourage all people to get outside and enjoy the spectacular outdoors while having as much fun as possible challenging themselves!
Our races also raise much needed funds for Olive Tree Projects a not-for-profit organization founded in 2008 by Sarah Wallace from Devon, Alberta. OTP operates a maternity centre in Jacmel, Haiti. The net proceeds from all our events go to this wonderful charity.
Please feel free to contact us anytime. We look forward to seeing you at one of our events!
Our Races
Race Date: April 6, 2025
In this race you will be making your way up, down and groomed ski runs of Rabbit Hill Snow Resort so extra traction under your feet may be required. Three types of races will be offered: 5 km, 10 km, and a 6 hour event. In the 6 hour event you will be challenged to see how many loops you can run in this time period. Can't wait to see you at the hill!
Race Date: May 17, 2025
The word "Lakou" comes from the language of Haitian Creole and refers to a yard usually shared by many households. Lakou Backyard Ultra will be hosted in the backyard of River's Edge Running Series' director, Bryan Wallace. There is only one winner - the one who runs the furthest. Hope to see you there!
