The Monster Marmot is coming, and you’d better RUN.
About the event
The Monster Marmot Trail Race is a community trail-running event at Mount Washington Alpine Resort, created in partnership with Front Runners Cumberland and in support of the Marmot Recovery Foundation.
Inspired by Mount Washington’s famously steep “Monster Mile” terrain, the course features alpine views, forested trails, and punchy climbs that make this race tough, scenic, and seriously rewarding.
Choose between a rugged 5K or 10K route through the alpine terrain of Mount Washington. Both courses feature a demanding climb, technical trails, changing mountain conditions and some of the best views on Vancouver Island.
Whether you are racing for the podium, taking on your first mountain trail event or simply showing up for the marmots, you are invited to join us for one monster of a morning on the mountain.

Fundraising
100% of net proceeds from the Monster Marmot Trail Race will support the Marmot Recovery Foundation and the continued recovery of the endangered Vancouver Island marmot.
Important Course Information
Both the 5K and 10K are challenging mountain trail courses. Participants should expect steep climbing, technical descents, rocky and uneven footing, exposed alpine terrain and rapidly changing mountain weather.
Sections of either route may require participants to hike, slow down, or use their hands for balance.
