Road Run Track Trail

A trail run you can tailor to your own goals!

Challenge yourself on our 7km+ trail to complete as many loops as you can in 2, 4 or 6 hours. Set in the beautiful hills of Batawa, Ontario, our chill trail run is designed to get you outside moving, in a relaxed & supportive environment!

Course Details / Aid Stations:

Participants can expect to encounter hills, rocks, roots, sticks, mud and bugs. There is one road crossing. Runners will cross at their own risk!

Trails at times are wide enough for two to run side by side and at other sections reduced to a single file track. So please come as a courteous human being. A simple "on your left" or "excuse me" ought to do the trick.

The course will be marked but no mile markers. You will pass our aid station once in the 7km loop.

We will have water and Tailwind available at our aid station approx halfway through the course along with the usual aid station fare. NOTE: We are a cup-less event. Our volunteers will be happy to help refill your bladders (hydration packs), water bottles or handhelds.

There will be space at the start/finish for everyone to leave drop bags and set up chairs or coolers.

We love these trails and we hope you will too, so lets keep them beautiful, STASH YOUR TRASH.

Kit Pick Up

Kit pick up is 90 minutes before race start.

Details will be emailed to participants closer to the event date. Please be sure to register with an email address you wish to receive race information about.

Timing/Cheating/Etc

At the start and end of each loop participants must check in at our timing table. There will be a universal clock by which all participants will be timed and recorded. Times will be posted to our Facebook page following race day.

And cheaters only cheat themselves. There are no placement medals, but better, self satisfaction of running a race well!

Please remember we are not a Boston or UTMB qualifier. We're just here to have fun. The only competition should be being a better you than you were yesterday!

Refunds/Deferrals/Changes

NO refunds or deferrals for any reason.

If you are unable to make it you may give your spot to someone else, but contact us immediately to make these changes. No changes after June 10th 2025

Other vital stuff

There will be a porta potty on site. No change rooms or dressing rooms.

SWAG DEADLINE IS MAY 18th!

Anyone registered after this date may not receive swag.

All registrants will receive awesome race swag and a participant medal - we're working on details!
