Hurt'n Bear
The Hurt'n Bear is a trail race held at the Pidherny Recreation Site, a 620-hectare recreational area within Prince George. The event offers three distances: 5 km, 10 km, and the Hagen Half of 21.3 km. The course explores the site's extensive trail network, which is managed by the Prince George Cycling Club.
The routes are described as intermediate to advanced for the 10 km and half marathon. The surface is dirt and gravel. The start and finish are in the site's upper parking lot. For the Hagen Half marathon, a cut-off point is set at Valve Job by 11:00 am, after which runners are not permitted to continue on the lower loop. Aid stations are available on the 10 km and half marathon courses.
Participation is free for Prince George Road Runners members, but online registration is required for everyone. There is no race day registration. A portion of the race proceeds goes to the Prince George Cycling Club for trail maintenance. The race is a BC Athletics-sanctioned event and is manually timed. A free kids' race is included.
