"Hill of a Race" (HOAR) is an event unlike anything seen in the Edmonton area. When's the last time you've powered your way up a groomed ski run in your runners? You heard correct. It will be held on the groomed slopes of the Rabbit Hill Snow Resort. And no, there will not be any skiers or snowboarders on the hill with you. You will have it all to yourself. It will be a challenging and exciting time for all levels of snow runners, walkers, crawlers and sliders.
Three types of races will be offered:
"The Snack" (5km): two laps of an approximate 2.5km course up and down the ski slopes
“A la Carte" (10 km): four laps of an approximate 2.5km course up and down the ski slopes
All day Buffet" (6 hours): the same course and distance as "A la Carte" but with one huge twist...complete as many laps as you can coplete in six hours!
As are all the races in the River's Edge Runnin Series, this is a fun charitable event to raise much needed funds for Olive Tree Projects which operates a maternity centre in Jacmel, Haiti. Olive Tree Projects was founded in 2008 by Sarah Wallace who worked for many years at Rabbit Hill Snow Resort while a student. All proceeds from this event will go to this wonderful charity.
You will be making your way up and down groomed ski runs so extra traction under your runners may be required. Your call. Walking poles are permitted. Can't wait to see you at the hill!
You can only register for this event online through our event page on Race Roster so register early in order to ensure your spot!
PRIOR TO BEING ALLOWED TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS EVENT YOU WILL HAVE TO READ AND AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THE EVENTS RACE WAIVER.
