About the race
The SOO 200 is a trail ultramarathon held in the Goulais River area near Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, on 11 September 2026. It is presented as Eastern Canada’s first 200 mile event and is a sister event of The Divide 200.
Race distances include:
- 200 mile
- 100 mile starting at Stokely Creek Lodge
- 100 km two loops starting at Stokely Creek Lodge
- 50 km starting at Stokely Creek Lodge
The course mixes single track, double track, dirt road, cross-country and sections of bushwhacking, with some short route-finding even on the prescribed line. On the 200 mile course, checkpoints are spaced about every 20 to 40 km. Competitors in the 200 mile event are required to carry a Garmin inReach supplied by the organizer for route-finding and safety.
Registration options for the 200 mile include full payment or a two-installment plan: a 50% deposit on registration and a second payment due on May 22; paying the balance after May 22 triggers a 10% price increase. There is a 10% non-refundable fee. Published entry fees vary by distance and by registration window.
Event logistics include pre-race check-in, a welcome dinner, racer and volunteer meetings, and post-race awards and dinner. The event is situated on the traditional territory of the Anishnaabeg and the Métis People and acknowledges this land. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
