Run Ridge Run
Run Ridge Run is a trail race in Port Moody, BC on Saturday, February 13, 2027, that uses trails around Sasamat and Buntzen lakes and parts of the Diez Vistas route. Distances offered:
- 13 KM
- 25 KM
Both distances include climbs, descents and technical trail sections. The 13 KM route skirts Sasamat Lake on the Buntzen Ridge Trail and offers views of Buntzen Lake. The 25 KM follows the same start, continues onto the Diez Vistas Ridge, uses the Lakeview Trail, grazes Buntzen Lake, then climbs back toward Sasamat Lake for the finish.
Each distance has one water station and one aid station. The water station is about six kilometres into both races where the courses split. Aid stations are located at approximately KM 8.5 on the 13 KM and KM 18 on the 25 KM. Aid station supplies include gels, waffles, energy drink mix, Coke, water, chips, oranges, bananas and cookies.
