Winter in Canada can be depressing but the founder of Polar Rush, Ontario’s fastest growing winter event at Horseshoe Resort, is on a mission to fix that…even if only for a day.

Prices go up as it gets closer to the event so be sure to check out the website to get the best deal.

Still need some convincing? Here’s the top five reasons you won’t want to miss Polar Rush this year:

1. No Training or Running Required

Polar Rush is all about having fun at your own pace. In fact, most participants take their time and walk to soak in the course.

2. 14 Gut-Busting Obstacles

Without a doubt, the best part about Polar Rush is the obstacles. Adults might just have more fun than the kids doing all sorts of activities including…

The famous tube run…

Crazy carpeting…

The spiral of death…

Lots of climbing and more!

3. Bonfire After Party

Kick back and enjoy a cold drink by a hot fire after you finish conquering the course with fellow Rushers. Okay, maybe two drinks.

4. Awards For Top Finishers

For anyone that likes to get competitive, there are a few awards for the top finishers and medals for every participant at the finish line.

5. Participants Support Sick Kids Hospital

Every year Polar Rush participants create teams to raise money to support the Possibilities Fund at Sick Kids Hospital.

By raising $200 or more for SickKids, participants receive an official SickKids sports bandana to wear on race day.
