Just when you thought your 2013 trail running calendar was filled to the max with dirty fun…
Introducing a new ultra and relay trail run in fantastic Fernie, BC. This event is tentatively scheduled for June, 2013 and will feature the exceptional trail system in and around Fernie. The projected 6 legs, ranging in length from 10-20km and totaling 80-100km over 4000+ metres of elevation gain, will provide runners with the option of running solo or building a team of 2-6 athletes and covering the course in a relay.
Given the extensive trail system built, in large part, with the support of the Fernie Trails Alliance, this event will offer up some of the best and most challenging trail running around. For those unaccustomed to Fernie, the views in this part of Rockies are unparalleled. Legs of the run will feature stretches through beautiful old growth forests, climbs to high alpine vistas and speedy descents with stops at Fernie Alpine Resort and Island Lake Lodge. All this and the comforts of a worldclass resort town and exceptional course support courtesy of the crew at TransRockies Events.
Registration is set to open early 2013 so stayed tuned for more information!
