Course Details
Water/aid stations are available along the 16K course at 8K only. Along the 29K course, aid stations are available at 9K, 13K, 16K and 20K. Along the 42K course, aid stations are available at 9K, 13K, 16K, 20K, 27K and 32K.
Due to high winds and unpredictable conditions, all 29K and 42K runners must carry a windproof jacket with them. Start time for the 29K and 42K is 8:30am and the 16K starts at 11:00am from the West Bragg Creek Parking Lot.
Detailed Course Map & Descriptions will be uploaded in March to include the new 42K course.
To reduce environmental impact in this pristine recreation area, all runners and volunteers are encouraged to bring refillable water bottles on course as well as a plate, bowl, cup and utensils for the post race meal. Recycling station is available at the finish line for beverage containers and we will accept returned bib pins.
Entry fees includes lunch, chance at great draw prizes and cool gear (guaranteed for entries received by August 1 but we'll do our best to accommodate). Awards will be presented to the top male and female racers in each distance.
