Get out your snow shoes, because the Manitoba Snow Shoe Runs returns on February 15!
 
It's the third annual year for the event, where participants get to race through five or 10km of snow.
 
Snowshoe Run Race Director Kevin Steinbachs says a new addition this year is the fat bike.
 
"This year, what we have added is an opportunity for anyone who has a fat tire mountain bike is that they can come as well and use the same course. A little treat for anyone who's never tried a fat bike, Streaming Woods is going to have a few demo bikes there as well that people can try one out."
 
Steinbachs says fat bike tires are up to five inches wide, compared 2.5-3 inches for a typical mountain bike.
 
Registration for the Manitoba Snow Shoe Race is $25, but the cost will go up closer to the event on February 15.
