The Earth Day Trail Run takes place on April 18, 2026 in Courtenay, British Columbia and is proudly presented by Foveō Running. The event celebrates Earth Day with a community-focused trail run set inside Seal Bay Nature Park in the Comox Valley.

This single-day grassroots event sends runners onto a clearly marked course through Seal Bay Nature Park. The day pairs on-trail running with a festival atmosphere — organisers provide a live DJ at the event area and a post-run lunch for all registered participants.

What sets Earth Day Trail Run apart is its local, community-first vibe: a modest, well-marked trail route through a protected nature park, music to keep the energy up at the finish, and a communal lunch that keeps runners and crews mingling after the run. The event also acknowledges that it takes place on the Unceded Traditional Territory of the K’ómoks First Nation.
