What is special about the Cumby?
Focussing on the next generation of trail racers - our youth
The Cumby team and the Comox Valley Road Runners want to build our population of racers to include youth and new trail racers and walkers. For Cumby 2023 we have a 7 km route that will make you want to come back for more next year.
Our Volunteers Rock!
We have such great community support for our race. Cumby volunteers are fabulous, from the familiarization run leaders, to the equipment set up folks, the mountain biking first aid attendants, our wonderful food preps, aid station folks, sweeps and all the others who make this race so special.
We thank you. Please say thank you as you race by them on race day!

2023 - Year Eight of the Cumby
Trail racing on Vancouver Island has never been so good. There is so much to choose from; there are series races, at least three ultras, a number of independent races, the return of a beloved northern klimb, our sister race, the Perserverance and The Cumby. Do them all and support all of these hard working trail racing organizing teams who put them together for all of our enjoyment . Help out as a volunteer when you can. Do it. Do it.
