About the Event

Experience the thrill of running on an airport runway at Slemon Park! This unique race offers runners a chance to traverse a flat, open course that is usually reserved for aircraft. The absence of traffic means you can focus entirely on your performance or simply enjoy this distinctive setting with family and friends.
The airfield's wide expanses provide the perfect backdrop for both personal bests and casual strolls alike. As you run past historic planes, you'll be supporting a vital local cause—the restoration project at Airforce Heritage Park. This event not only honors Summerside’s aviation legacy but also contributes to preserving iconic aircraft like the Argus and Tracker through your participation.
Your entry fee supports this important initiative, ensuring these significant pieces of local history remain visible for future generations. Join us for an unforgettable race that combines speed with a deep sense of community and heritage preservation.
