Pasqua Lake Trail Challenge is over. What a great day! The sky was clear and the air was cool enough to keep the runners from overheating when climbing the hills.
The new start location was great for spectators. Seeing the runners come blaring down the hill towards the finish was thrilling!
Lace up your trail shoes – Pasqua Lake Trail Challenge is coming.
Once again, there will be an adjustment to the course and start location. There is an interpretive centre near where the race started in 2013 (near Hole in the Wall campsite), so the course will be adjusted as required for the new starting point. Continue reading
What can I say? It was not the day I envisioned when planning this race. However, as Margaret surmised, despite the cold, wet, and mud, I think people had fun. Certainly it will be a day we will all remember for a long time.
Congratulations to all the runners who braved the elements and came out. You are all winners. Results are posted below. Continue reading

Last year, Race Director Rick Minett took us on challenging, exciting course that wound up and down the hills. The course is new for the 3rd year in a row – Rick is always eyeing up improvements for your running experience! There will be a tame, no hills 5 km distance that will give runners who are not familiar with trails a nice introduction. There will be two longer options that are more challenging – 7.5 km for those looking to challenge the hills of Pasqua Lake and 15 km for those looking to conquer them!

Some folks were lucky enough to win some great draw prizes, sponsored by Track and Trail and Sport Chek. Continue reading
