Bear and Red are two beautiful mountains just behind the heart of Mission, BC. These mountains feature perfectly designed single-track trails and offer stunning views of the lush forests and surrounding mountain ranges. And guess what? We are hosting a trail race on these amazing trails on June 6th, 2020! Even if you are not running the race (though we hope you will) this is an excellent opportunity to check out these trails and get an early start on spring training!
Our clinic is for participants who are looking to build their trail running strength, stamina, and speed with completely guided runs on the Fraser Valley Trail Race "Bear Mountain" race course and near by areas! This year we are offering a 21 km group, building to this distance over an 8 week period.
Our Saturday "long run" begins at 8:00 am and always has at least three experienced trail running leaders who will provide guided runs in and amongst the Mission (Bear and Red Mountain) and Abbotsford (Sumas Mountain) trails. Each year we invite out some of our sponsors on different weekends to share their knowledge and gear with you, including opportunities to demo trail shoes!
We also include:
- weekly emails recapping the important tips covered during the clinic
- additional resources including links to relevant research and tips
- suggested weekly runs to support your training progress from week to week
- amazing local and fun sponsors with giveaways, shoe demos, and prizes
Finally, don't forget that we always bring hot coffee and healthy(-ish) treats after every run!
