ECT 50% Half Marathon : Flatrock to Red Cliff
This is a trail half marathon running from Flatrock to the Red Cliff parking lot (Cobbler's Crescent Parking Lot) along the East Coast Trail. The route follows Father Troy's Trail, Silver Mine Head Path and Cobbler's Path. The distance is 21 kilometres.
The event is presented as part of the Seaside Showdown Series and is supported by the East Coast Trail Association, The Outfitters, and Train 4 Trails. It is insured by CARA Canadian Adventure Racing Association. The race serves as a sampler of the ECT 50 to help runners prepare for a future 50k or to test pacing on a shorter trail distance.
Mandatory equipment includes a cell phone and a whistle. Outside assistance is only permitted at the aid station in Middle Cove Beach, except for medical attention. Aid stations will provide water and Gatorade; additional supplies depend on volunteers or an individual’s crew. The event is held rain or shine and participants are responsible for their own kit, nutrition, and clothing. Runners who withdraw are required to notify the Race Director directly.
Registration and bib numbers are nontransferable to other individuals. If the event is cancelled, refunds minus service fees or rollover registration will be offered. Route files are available on Strava. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
