IMPORTANT COVID-19 ANNOUCEMENT
Hello Limberlost fans and participants! As you know, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have been diligently working to make alternate plans for our event this year. At this time, we are pleased to offer you the opportunity to race this season in The Limberlost Challenge on the new date of Saturday September 5th, 2020.
If you have registered for this event, you now have the following three options:
1) Free transfer of your registration to September 5th, 2020;
2) Free deferral of your registration to The Limberlost Challenge event in 2021; OR
3) A 75% refund of the registration fee already paid.
Our goal is to provide you with as much refund as possible while still addressing the commitments already made over this year. We hope that you will find one of the above options that best suits your needs. Please login to your Race Roster account to submit your choice by June 1st, 2020.
June 8th update:
In light of the dynamic situation surrounding COVID-19, we feel the most responsible move at this time is to pause registration for the 2020 event. The health and safety of our runners and volunteers remains our top priority.
We will re-evaluate at the end of June and provide further updates as new information from our Governments is made available.
If you have already opted for a refund for 2020, we thank you for your response. We will process refunds as quickly as we can over the next few weeks.
Please stay tuned for further information and options on our decision date of July 1st.
We thank you sincerely for your support.
EVENT INFO
The Limberlost Forest and Wildlife Reserve is the trail runner’s dream with its challenging terrain that will take you alongside pristine lakes, through a wetland with its tier of beaver dams, up and over some steep inclines and either tiptoeing or splashing through the occasional creek or mud hole.
You will run through technical areas that will require the nimblest of footwork and on trails that allow you to open up to your best speed, plus everything in between. You will marvel at the extraordinary beauty of this privately owned Reserve that we are so privileged to enjoy. It will leave you breathless in more ways than one!
We promise you a well marked course, enthusiastic volunteers and a post-race meal that you will write home about.
