DETAILS
Run the Wild is back! After the apocalyptic storm of 2019 and two years of COVID restrictions we are so excited to bring your favourite navigation race back to life.
The race will be staged out of Station Flats in Bragg Creek on the Sulphur Springs map. It will also make use of the extensive mountain bike trail system for some sweet trail running. You can expect a rogaine-style score-O and some standard point-to-point orienteering, with the usual Run the Wild added surprises.
The course has been designed for beginner and seasoned orienteers. Create a route that makes the most of your skills, fitness, and mood!

Start and finish are at Station Flats. Please carpool.
9 am - 2 pm
