YYC Sub Ultra Trail Run

The YYC Sub Ultra Trail Run takes place in Calgary's Nose Hill Park, beginning in the Shaganappi Trail Northwest area. As the name suggests, a sub-ultra is a trail race under marathon distance. Participants can choose from three main distances: 34 km, 17 km, or 6.8 km. The event commences early in the morning and also features an untimed 2 km Kids Run. The 34 km and 6.8 km races are open to all genders. The 17 km distance is divided into a women-only Wild Rose race and a men-only race. The Calgary Trail Run Community organizes this event, with Richelle Love serving as the contact person. It is designed for both novice trail runners and seasoned athletes seeking a sub-marathon trail challenge within a large urban park in Calgary.
