The Hybrid Heart: 5K & 10K Trail Race
The Hybrid Heart is the founding edition of a community trail race held on October 25, 2026 at Wesley Clover Parks in Ottawa. The event was created in memory of a person who died after a battle with cancer and raises funds for the Ottawa Cancer Foundation; 100% of net proceeds will be donated to that foundation. Participants may create individual fundraising pages to raise additional charitable donations.
Distances offered:
- 5K one approachable loop through Wesley Clover Parks; participants can run, walk, or try a first trail race
- 10K two laps of the same loop, allowing a steadier pace or a more competitive effort
Registration includes professional chip timing, a custom finisher medal, and complimentary race photography. A Race Village runs across the weekend with vendor and community partner activations, participant bib pickup, food and hydration, recovery experiences, prizes and giveaways, and an awards presentation. The event description notes opportunities for vendors, sponsors and volunteers to participate and support the race and its charitable goal.
