Event

The McIntosh 10K is a trail race held on October 25, 2025, at 25 Lois Lane, Halifax, NS, Canada. The event is organized by All Out Trail Racing and takes place on the McIntosh Run Single Track trail system. The listed participant count is 87.

Registration options are divided into three start waves based on expected finish time. Each wave has the same entry fee of $45.91, which includes a $3 trail donation. Registration is available from September 5 to October 16. There are no refunds; registrations may be transferred to another person up to October 16 for a $1.95 transfer fee plus processing charges. A volunteer option is listed as free with an access code.

Course and logistics

The race distance is 10 km and the course is entirely on trail. Trails are primarily hard-surfaced granite with roots and rocks in places. The route passes areas that were damaged by a past forest fire and offers views of Halifax Harbour and Flat Lake. The McIntosh Run Watershed Association has developed the trail network and has built over 27 km of singletrack since 2016, with a recently approved Phase 2 adding 16 km.

Starts are organized in three waves spaced five minutes apart; the race is chip timed so wave selection does not affect official time. There is no mandatory gear, but traction aids are recommended in icy or snowy conditions. Prizing is listed for 10 km podium finishers and male and female winners over 50, plus door prizes.
