It’s not a race, let’s call it a fun run, we just want some friends to get together to run. Entry fees are minimal; enough to cover expenses like portable toilets and propane for heat. But there will
be 200 mile stickers and 100 mile stickers. This year’s event will again be a fundraiser, any money in excess of expenses will be donated to the Mood Disorders Society of Canada. We’re calling the event Three Days in the Park, or 3DIP for short, but unofficially it will be the Stahr Wahrs Ultra. We can’t afford a legit Star Wars license, so we’ve had to use a different spelling, and for the support crew the “H” stands for “hammered”. Nobody will be discouraged from wearing or bringing Star Wars gear. The course is a one mile loop with a little hill, short and steep. And maybe a second, bonus hill. And some fun signs. And led lights.

The Hustle at
Pinehurst brings a legendary course back to life.
Set in the Pinehurst Lake Conservation Area just north of Paris, Ontario, this race revives the iconic Run for the Toad course, once the largest trail race in Canada, and reimagines it with a fresh experience that keeps everything we loved about the trails themselves.
Runners will take on a 12.5 km loop that winds through forested singletrack, traces the edge of Pinehurst Lake, and rolls through open meadows. The trail keeps things interesting with twists, turns, and a few honest climbs that get the heart pumping and signal you’re close to the end of the loop.
Whether you’re lining up for one loop or settling in for a longer day, The Hustle is designed to be a must-do event for trail runners in southwestern Ontario and is built for all runners, as an approachable, challenging in the right ways race-course, that is rooted in history.
This race is for runners who love good trails and a little effort. Whether it’s your first trail race, a chance to settle into a familiar loop, or a tune-up for longer goals. The Hustle offers honest, runnable trails with just enough twists and climbs to keep things interesting.
Come for one loop.

We are SO excited to welcome you to our 7th annual Run With Coops, in support of the Cooper Robertson Foundation (CRF) and the SickKids Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) Clinic. This year, we are once
again setting an ambitious goal: raising $1 more than last year, for a total of $55,641. Cooper Robertson, now 8 years old, was diagnosed with TSC at just 6 weeks old. With incredible support from family and friends, CRF was founded in 2019 as a registered Canadian charity. Since then, CRF has raised over $565,000 to support the SickKids TSC Clinic, helping fund care, research, and awareness for TSC. We are looking forward to coming together with the entire Cooper's Crew team, including family, friends, and kids, to walk, run, and wheel together. The Community Walk will take place on Sunday, October 4th, 2026, at Southward Community Park in Grimsby, with registration opening at 10:30 AM. Mark your calendars. We are making this year's celebration bigger and better than ever! We would love your
help spreading the word. Share Run With Coops with your own crew of family and friends and help us reach our goal. Every bit of support, big or small, makes a meaningful difference. Together, we can do something truly amazing. The countdown is on. Let's go, Cooper's Crew! Thank you so much! Watch Cooper's Story below

If spots open up they will be available on Race Roster so check back occasionally. --- Fundraising: This event is being held in memory of the Race Director's cousin, Michael Bennardo, who died at the age of 38 on September 20, 2018. Michael was just about to complete medical school and had a promising future ahead where he would work towards his goal of helping as many people as possible. Michael absolutely loved the ocean and was certainly drawn to it throughout his life. We are very happy to be supporting Oceana Canada in Michael's memory and would truly appreciate any funds that you could donate towards this great cause. ---
