Sri Chinmoy Trail Races 10 Km and Half Marathon
A fantastic off road race in the beautiful back trails of Gatineau Park.
About the event
Dear Runners,
Regrettably, due to unforeseen circumstances, we have had to cancel this year’s event. In the over 30 years of holding this trail race, this is the first time we have had to cancel.
The Sri Chimnoy Marathon Team organizes a multitude of athletic events world wide each year so we are certain to be back in Gatineau Park for 2018 and look forward to seeing you on the trails then!
Wishing you good running and happiness!
Warm Regards,
Prapti Jensen
Sri Chimnoy Marathon Team, Ottawa
___________________________
We have improved the route in 2017 to ensure solid footing after the steep climb up trail #2 so you can run strong and safe right through to the finish. Also the Half-Marathon course is a single 21KM loop - no repeat loops! The 10KM will run a portion of this 21 km route.
New in 2017 is the "Group Discount" option. It is available if five or more runners want to register together. Simply have one member of your group register everyone. Thanks to both XC Ottawa and CrossFit NCR who brought a wave of enthusiasm and impressive fitness with them - they inspired this category for groups and teams.
Have a great summer of running, fitness and joy and we look forward to seeing on the starting line this September.
