The Night Thing 2026
The Night Thing 2026 is a trail race organized by Race Huron on the Maitland Trail at the Auburn Riverside Retreat in Auburn, Ontario. The event takes place on October 23, 2026 and offers two trail distances that start at the retreat along the trail. Participants will run in darkness and are advised to bring a headlamp.
Available distances:
- 7.21 km (sold out)
- 12 km
Registration opened on May 1, 2026. Registration after September 22, 2026 is not guaranteed a t-shirt, as quantities are limited for late registrations. The listed registration fee for both distances is CA$65 during the published registration windows.
The event has a non refundable, non transferable policy for entry fees. If the event is cancelled due to weather and not rescheduled for the same year, fees minus online registration charges will be applied to the following year’s race. Proceeds support the local community and charitable organizations. Participants should check in before their race to collect shirts and complete any required event procedures.
