Our Orientation Runs are fun opportunities to prepare for your Squamish 50 weekend. Bring some friends or meet some new ones! We even have a ‘light’ aid station for each run courtesy of Nesters Market and Näak, with gel, energy drink, water, Coke, chips, cookies, bananas, and oranges. We check everyone in, and make sure you emerge from the wilderness safely at the end.
As part of our ongoing support of SORCA, we charge a $10 donation for O-Runs, which goes 100% towards SORCA trail maintenance. The $10 donation is a minimum – feel free to donate more if you’re so inclined. It all goes to the trails!
Maximum of 200 participants. Not restricted to registered runners. Online registration will close at 6pm on March 7, 2026. Race morning sign up may be available if we're not sold out, but cash only.

O-Run #1 will follow the 23 km course, point to point, but will start further along the actual course and finish prior to the race day finish area, covering approximately 21 km during this particular orientation run.
Meet in front of Nesters Market, just up the street from our race day finish line. There is plenty of parking, and we'll carpool from here. Please park along the far north end of the parking lot to minimise disruption to customer parking for the day. The run is a point-to-point, and we’ll need to carpool and shuttle up to our starting point at Capilano University (formerly Quest).
Due to new consumer legislation, prices are now shown inclusive of all fees.
Final checkout will show actual pricing and fees separately.
