Afton Trail Run

Embark on a thrilling challenge with The One Tough Mile—an exhilarating race that pushes your limits in a unique way. Navigate a one-mile loop at Ojibway Park, traversing a predominantly paved trail surrounded by the cooling shade of towering trees. The course promises both ease and enjoyment as you strive to surpass cutoff times for each lap. Take a one-minute breather before the next mile, and brace yourself for a progressively faster pace. Are you able to make the extra mile?

Commencing at 14 minutes for the initial mile, the return time steadily decreases: 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4 minutes. Fail to beat the cutoff time, and you're out of the race. The ultimate victor is the first runner to successfully meet the final cutoff time. The One Tough Mile guarantees an exhilarating experience where speed, strategy, and endurance converge for an unforgettable running adventure.

Registrations after May 27th will not include shirt sizing information, and preferred sizes may not be available on the day of the event.
