The Half Cumby

Our most popular race. Start time 10:00

 Dont let the length fool you.  This is a gnarly challenging race.   

This 14 km race will send you up one of the oldest trails in the Cumberland Community Forest affectionally known as "The Pig".  Up and up you will go on the  climbing trails SoboNo Michi  which means Grandmothers' Trail.  Given that our race happens the day before Mother's Day we wish all of our racing grandmothers great strength and breath climbing to the top.  You will race along the logging road and keep going  Up and Up Lower and Upper Climax and then you can anticipate your reward.  Down, down you will  race along the fast and flowy Field of Dreams.  You will connect to some of our favourite weekend running trails during this event.    There will be two aid stations providing water , fruit and sweets.  Bring your own special energy gels and electrolyte fluid as this is a tough14 km race with lots of elevation and fast descents.  The trail portion ends on the iconic Space Nugget which if just 600 meters from your finish line in No. 6 Mine Park. 

Please, Please if you choose to train on this route ensure you watch for fast bike traffic coming down Field of Dreams and Blue Collar
