The Loonie Loops is New Brunswick's first and only 24-hour trail race held at the YMCA Glenn Carpenter Centre in Saint John, NB.

The course is moderately technical and set entirely on private land. The event emphasizes personal goals and endurance over competition, with aid stations every 3km, a festive atmosphere including a BBQ party and live bands, and camping options available.
