We are proud to announce that this event is sanctioned by Athletics Ontario. --- We are thrilled to announce that we are partnering with La Sportiva for our events this year. Not only will La
Sportiva be at our races with their demo fleet of shoes to try but they will also be giving away 2 pairs of shoes! --- We are also now working with a new, LOCAL, nutrition company called THN Labs. They are generously providing each runner with gels in their race kit as well as gels available at our aid stations. The gels contain only 4 ingredients: maple syrup, tahini, sea salt, and rowanberry extract. For more information on the product, click on their logo below: --- PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS FOR THE 2026 EVENT! THIS YEAR THE COURSE WILL BE RUN IN A COUNTER-CLOCKWISE DIRECTION. We switch directions every year. That means that we will be running "downhill" on the rail trail this year. Personally, I find this direction more difficult but I seem to be in the minority as most people say that this direction is
easier. Come and join us at the Dundas Valley Conservation Area for Tally in the Valley, a race unlike any other in the area. --- Race Information: Participants will run a 7km loop through the unique Carolinian forest in the Dundas Valley Conservation Area. The loop is primarily made up of groomed double track trails with rolling hills and approximately 130m of elevation gain per loop. Although there aren't any major climbs on this course, the constant rolling hills will wear you down in the later stages of the race. Check out the following video for a look at the course: Choose between running a single loop (7k), 3 loops (21k), 23 loops (100 miles), or run for 6/12/24 hours and see how many loops you can complete in the time provided. Runners who complete 23 loops (100 miles/161km) will earn themselves a custom belt buckle while all other participants will also be recognized for their hard work with a custom finishers medal. Looking for something a little different? Try "The Gong Show"!
This is an elimination style event, inspired by the Big's Backyard Ultra, that we are super stoked about. Participants will be given 1 hr to complete the 7km loop. Runners who successfully complete the loop within 1 hr (which may seem easy at first but will eventually become very challenging), will wait at the start line until the gong is hit, marking the time cut-off for the loop AND the start of the next loop. Please note: regardless of how fast participants complete their loop, they can't start their next loop until the gong is struck, which will be every hour on the hour. Participants remain in the event until they can no longer finish a loop within 1 hour OR until the race reaches 24 hours. If there is more than 1 runner to start the final loop after 23 hours, the first runner to complete the final loop will be the winner. However, ALL runners that make it to the 23 hour mark will receive a custom belt buckle since they will have run 100 miles. This race is awesome to watch as there is
quite a bit of strategy involved. Ideally, runners will want to run a comfortable pace and conserve energy but will also want to leave themselves some time to fuel-up at the aid station and have a short break before heading out for another loop. If you are planning on running the Gong Show Event, you might want to watch the following video for some tips: In the 6/12/24 hour races there are no DNF's (Did Not Finish). Each runner that starts the race will be recognized for the distance that they complete, regardless of when they stop. In the last 30 minutes before the completion of each timed event, we will have race volunteers stationed at different points on the course to mark how many kms into the loop the participants are when the time is up. --- Course Description: To view a course map, click here, but I wouldn't trust the elevation gain listed. Our watches consistently show 130-140m of gain per loop, not 59m as indicated on the map. Either way, it's runnable! Counter-Clockwise Loop
(THIS YEAR): There is a big change that will be happening this year (and likely from this point on). Every year, the race headquarters has been placed in the overflow parking field off of sawmill trail. However, the Conservation Area would like to regenerate this area and let the field grow naturally, which we think is great! This year, the race will start at the Trail Centre (right by the tap that our participants love). There are some real benefits to this change including the fact that we will have more space to set up and the area is flat, which will give our participants and their crews a level area for set-up. The biggest downside is that this area has always worked as an unofficial aid station where runners can fill up their bottles and cool off. BUT DON'T WORRY, we will set up an additional water station along the course. The loop will remain exactly the same, we will just be starting at a different point on the loop. Overall, we believe that it will make for a better experience for
everyone and we are excited about the change. The first 2km of the loop will be on the rail trail and will be slighlty downhill the entire way. This is a great spot to recover from the hills of the previous loop. If it is a sunny day, this section will be hot since there isn't a lot of shade. After exiting the rail trail, runners will run down a short but steep hill and will be at the lowest point of the course. The next 2.5km is mostly small rolling hills. Although it is entirely runnable, there is definitely more uphill than downhill in this section. The next 2-2.5km are the most challenging on the loop. This section is made up of rolling hills - no big hills but you will feel them! This will bring participants back to the Trail Centre, which is the where our Race HQ will be. --- Aid Stations: There will be one aid station on the course, which will be located at the start/finish area. Stock up in between loops. There will be water, an electrolyte drink, and all of your typical ultra
running fare including sweet and salty snacks, PB and J sandwiches, pickles, and chips. The menu will change as the day goes on. Last year there was grilled cheese, quesadillas and perogies. There will also be portable toilets located at the aid station. For those of you interested in running in the "Gong Show" elimination event, you can hang out at the aid station (start/finish area) after finishing the loop until the gong is hit, at which point you need to get moving if you want to make the next cut-off! The faster you finish your loop, the more time you have to rest and fuel-up. This year, we will be setting up a self-serve water station at approximately the halfway point of the loop. Please note that all Happy Trails Racing events are cup-less so you will need to have a collapsible cup or bottle to fill at the aid stations. --- Pacers: Gong Show: No pacers in the Gong Show elimination event. 6 Hour: No pacers in the 6 hour. 12 Hour: Pacers are strongly discouraged in the 12 hour day
race, but allowed in the 12hr night race. Since the course is 7km, there will be a lot of participants out on the course. However, we don't ever want our participants to be in any danger so if you feel like you need one for safety reasons, by all means, go for it but only in the last 4 hours of the 12hr day event. If you feel like you will need a pacer for safety reasons before this, please message the race director before registering. Participants over the age 65 are welcome to have a pacer at any time. Pacers will have to pay the park admission fee at the gatehouse when they arrive on site. 24 Hour and 100 Miles: Pacers will be permitted, if necessary, at 9pm. Pacers can only join their runner at the start/finish area. Pacers cannot mule (carry anything for their runner). --- Race Swag: All participants will receive a really cool and buttery-soft t-shirt that you can wear around town to show everybody that you're a bad-ass. (Please note: t-shirt design is subject to change depending on
supplier availability). Runners will have the option to choose either a Unisex Shirt or a Women's Cut Shirt during the registration process. The title "Women's Cut" is the actual name of the cut. Any person is welcome to choose whichever option they wish. Please note, the women's cut shirts do tend to fit a bit small so you may want to size up. The following shirt was last year's design: The race shirt cut-off date is July 1. If you register after July 1, you probably will NOT receive a t-shirt. Participants in the 7k, 21k, 6hr, 12hr, and 24hr events will all receive a rad race medal (the 2023 medal, bib, and sticker are posted below), unless you run 100 miles, in which case, you will earn yourself a SWEET belt buckle! Participant in the Gong Show get NUTHIN' unless they run 100 miles or win the event. That's part of the fun! --- Post Race Food: We understand that people have different dietary restrictions, needs, and preferences. Because of this, rather than include the cost of a post-race
meal that you may or may not enjoy/ be able to eat, we do not include meals in our race registration fees. We do this to give you the biggest bang for your buck and to try to enhance your experience the best that we can. --- Refund Policy: Happy Trails Racing has a great policy regarding race refunds/transfers: register with confidence knowing that you can take advantage of our early bird pricing and, if you need to back out, you can do so up to 30 days before the race with a 100% race credit that can go towards any future Happy Trails event. It doesn't expire. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate cancellations within 30 days of the race. However, participants are welcome to transfer their bib to someone else without any penalty. Please keep in mind that everything we need to order to have you at our race is done so at least 30 days out. Also, please note that we don't have waitlists. If spots open up they will be available on Race Roster so check back occasionally. --- Race Reports: Check
