Run Like Ole Monday Nite XC Series

Run Like Ole Monday Nite XC Series

A four-week timed race series held on different sections of the Camrose trail system. Each race follows trail types that include ski tracks, single track, local hoodoos and notable viewpoints. Races are scheduled on Mondays in spring on these dates: May 25; June 1; June 8 (Happy Valley Numero 2, new); and June 15 (Biathlon Trails; this one might have a twist).

Each race is timed and contributes points toward an overall series total across the four races. Points per race are assigned as follows: 4 points for 1st place, 3 points for 2nd, 2 points for 3rd, and 1 point for participating. Medals are awarded at the final race based on total points accumulated.

Course distances:

• Long course: 4-8 km
• Short course: 2-4 km

Entry fee is $25 per race or $80 for a four-race pass. A technical t-shirt is available for pre-purchase at $35 with pickup on the last day of races; additional shirts may be sold after the event depending on availability. The series is organized by the Vikings Athletic Club and Live Like Ole. Proceeds will go to supporting the Ole Heie & Family Legacy Foundation.
