The 100 km course consists of four 25 km loops. There is a generous 14 hour time limit, but don’t spend too much time at the aide stations or you may get caught by moose. Runners must start their final loop by 3 pm. This race was the course for the 2007 & 2014 Canadian 100 km Trail Championships. It will have fast and slow runners. The fast just blow up more spectacularly. Good race for any ultra-marathoner to compete in.
Elevation gain per lap:
305 m/1000 ft
