About the race
Fat Dog 120 is an ultra running event held in Manning Park, British Columbia, organized by Fat Dog Events. The event offers multiple distances and a long point-to-point course that crosses remote mountain terrain.
Distances include:
- 120 Mile point-to-point course listed as 124 miles
- 100k
- 40 Mile
The main course is described as beginning near the community of Keremeos and finishing along the shores of Lightning Lake in E.C. Manning Provincial Park. Cumulative elevation gain for the long course is just over 26,240 feet (about 8000 meters). Much of the route runs on remote, technical single track, often far from road access, and moves from valley bottoms into high sub-alpine terrain with panoramic views.
Organizers note active involvement in maintenance and care of the trail network used for the event, and that many incorporated trails have local historical significance. Route files are available in GPX format for the 120 mile, 100k, and 40 mile courses. Registration information in the source lists a registration opening on January 5, 2027 at 12:00 AM PT; the source also includes pricing details and a wait list policy for previous entries.
