About the race
Freaky Creeky is a trail running event at Kalamalka Lake Provincial Park, Vernon BC, offering multiple distances and a dedicated kids race. Distances include:
- ~2.5 km kids event, two short climbs, ages 0–12.
- 13.5 km main course.
- 29 km longer course using extended loops.
- 52 km ultra-distance with multiple aid stations.
Courses run on singletrack and mixed terrain. Runners encounter flowy, cruisey singletrack, technical sections, leg-burning climbs, and steep descents. The routes are flagged and marshals are positioned on course; participants are responsible for downloading GPX files and reviewing course maps before racing.
Aid stations are staffed and stocked with water, electrolytes, gels, snacks, and a variety of packaged items. The event is cup-less: runners must carry their own cup, bottle, or hydration system. Mandatory gear includes a minimum 1000 ml of fluid at the start for longer distances and a small amount of emergency food; additional recommended items are listed in the event guide.
Package pick-up takes place the day before and on race day; drop bags for the 52 km must be delivered in advance. The event includes chip timing, a racer bib, a custom race T-shirt for those registered by the deadline, a finisher medal, and professional photos. Event cancellation protection is included for organizer-initiated cancellations due to qualifying natural disasters; an optional third-party refund product is available for purchase at registration.
