Folks can make their way through a sea of bubble bogs during the event, making this magical, messy race like no other.<\/p>\n<p>If you aren\u2019t familiar with this popular race, it\u2019s a 5-kilometre course (2.5 kilometres, technically, done twice) featuring four coloured bubble bogs throughout. This event is less about setting serious personal records and more about having some serious fun. Whether you\u2019re a first-timer or a seasoned competitor, you\u2019re guaranteed to have a good time during this run.<\/p>\n<p>Not to mention, this race helps a different charity organization each year. For 2026, <a href=\"https:\/\/bgcbigs.ca\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Big Brother Big Sisters<\/a> in Edmonton will be receiving 100 per cent of the profits earned from Bubble Chase.<\/p>\n<p>Wanting to get in on the action? There\u2019s still time to register, so let\u2019s get you all the details.<\/p>\n<p>How does the Bubble Chase work?<\/p>\n<p>First things first: there is no age minimum or maximum for this run. Both wheelchairs\u00a0and strollers are permitted on the course, meaning the entire family can get in on this madness.<\/p>\n<p>The run itself is on a 2.5-kilometre course on Aug. 8, which you\u2019ll go through completely twice. This means double the bubble action, double the fun. You can choose between doing one loop or finishing the race in its entirety; it\u2019s all up to you. Whether you\u2019re walking, running, or dancing your way through the bubbles, it\u2019s all looking good.<\/p>\n<p>Another thing to keep in mind is that the race itself is not timed. If you\u2019re looking to keep track, the organizers suggest bringing a device of your own.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t worry about being covered in bubbles all day, either. On site, there will be water available to rinse off the bubbles after you\u2019ve completed the race. No need to fret!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/raceroster.com\/events\/2026\/114897\/bubble-chase-edmonton\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Registration is open online<\/a> to those looking to participate from now until the day of the race.<\/p>\n<p>For adults, meaning those above 18, registration costs $54.99 and includes your entry wristband as well as the medal itself.
