Bell Ringer 5 Hour
The event takes place on September 19, 2026, near Morden, MB, at the Shannondale area. It is a timed five hour run and hike held on a single track loop roughly 4 to 5 km in length, mostly dirt and grass with some rocks. Each lap contains about 100 meters of elevation gain.
Participants try to complete as many laps as they can within the five hour window. A relay option for two people is offered. Officials record each bib number and the start and finish time of every lap at the same checkpoint. The course is marked with arrows, tape and flags. The route includes a number of close switchbacks that could be used to shorten laps.
On site amenities include portable bathrooms, tents or shelters, and endurance style food and drinks. This is a cupless event. A post race barbecue is being planned and a first aid responder will be present. Registrations completed by August 20, 2026, receive a T shirt or other swag.
The event is held on private land; participants are asked to treat the property with respect. Proceeds support the Boundary Trails Nordic Junior Development team for travel costs. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
