East Coast Beast Coast 2026 brings an 8K trail race to Rockwood Park in Saint John, with a route that makes the most of one of North America’s largest municipal parks. It’s a straightforward summer trail outing with a community feel and a kid-friendly option alongside the main race.
The event sits within the East Coast Games program, which gives it a bigger weekend backdrop while keeping the focus on an accessible off-road run.
