Oh man, hated the running start at 24 hours. Also finding out that yes, you will in fact have to ride that last lap becuase the guy in front of you got in 5 minutes before cut off...
As for Nordic Centre, yes it is fine for family. You can set out on the Banff trail for a nice cruise without to many hills. Some of the lower stuff is a little nicer to ride due to less gravel but there are more hills, you can dip into it and see what you think without getting into to much trouble. You can ride a ton of stuff that is not single track, all the winter cross country trails would be fine. Around town also has lots of pathways by the river that are very nice, no hills at all.
