Bill's Great Peak Ascent - Less than a week to go get your Free Beer

Only a few days  to go until the third running of Bill's Great Peak Ascent.  This run is a great opportunity to keep in prime trail-running shape (or to work towards it :-) and is a great fit for those interested in running STORMY (which I'd recommend) in early August.

Post-event get-together is at the Mosquito Creek Grill and, as always, participants are entitled to one beer on the house as well as the usual assortment of door prizes.

Copper Falls - North Idaho

Go Deep or Go Home

Hello

I just want to inform everyone that this year is the last chance for a course record on this course. Next year there will be a slight change. Instead of heading up the BP to Old Buck, next year the race will branch off and head up Three Chop Trail to Old Buck. A much steeper and longer climb.

I think that will make the course more demanding and a greater challenge.  

 

Go Deep or Go Home - Four pairs of Montrail running shoes up for grabs

Mark your calendar for the Go Deep and Go Home on August 26. This year marks another year where 4 pair of Montrail are up for grabs to anyone completing any of the distances. No one ever has completed the 80km yet and if they do, I might consider having a special 1 pair for the 80km distance.

As always there will be other great prizes but definitely the Montrail shoes are the top prize for all you trail running folk.

Come out to cheer for the Vancouver 100 runners

The Vancouver 100 will start this Saturday, 3 June at 4:30am in Deep Cove.  10 Ultrarunners and their support crew will toe the start line to complete a 100km long out and back run on the Baden Powell Trail from Deep Cove to Horseshoe Bay and back. 

North Shore Enduro - 6 Hour Run/Relay

The pub is booked, the door prizes plentiful, so come out and raise a toast to the Enduro! There's one catch - you have to run 6-hours first. The Enduro is a 6-hour run on a 7km loop course in the LSDR. Great training run for those running summer 100 milers. Not up to 6 hours? Get some buddies together and run the Enduro as a relay. For more information, check out the Enduro website.
