Race overview
The Knee Knackering North Shore Trail Run is a 30-mile foot race along the Baden-Powell Centennial Trail from Horseshoe Bay in West Vancouver to Deep Cove in North Vancouver, British Columbia. The course crosses the mountains of Metro Vancouver's North Shore and provides views of city, mountain and ocean scenery. Runners climb about 8,000 feet and descend about 8,300 feet over the route.
The event is aimed at people with some experience in trail and endurance events. Entry is determined by a random selection process; the expanded race field is 262 runners. The event began in 1989 with eight participants and grew rapidly. It is produced by the Northshore Ultra Trailrunning Society, a non-profit society incorporated in British Columbia.
The event program includes regular community training runs on Wednesdays and Sundays and a volunteer program. Since its inception the race organization has raised a total of $204,000 for various charities. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
