Selkirk Slacker 12hr Ultra Trail Run & Relay
The Selkirk Slacker is a community-focused timed trail event in Golden, BC on May 15, 2027. The event is held on an approximately 6.2 km loop with about 146 m of ascent and 152 m of descent; for 2027 the loop will be run in the opposite direction from previous years.
Available formats include:
- 12-hour Solo
- 12-hour team (2-person relay)
- 12-hour team (up to 5-person relay)
- 8-hour Solo
The Start/Finish and transition area are at Keith King Memorial Park (1501 Maple Drive). The timing tent, aid table and team transition area are colocated. There is parking and washroom facilities on site, and space for teams to set up base camps. The course runs directly through the Start/Finish and volunteers assist with lap tracking; runners check in at the volunteer table when completing laps.
There are no aid stations on the loop. Water, electrolytes and food are available at the Start/Finish; participants are expected to be largely self contained while on course. Children on the course must be registered with a bib and waiver. Participants under 13 must be accompanied by a supervising adult; participants 13 and older may run without a parent present if a guardian has signed the required waiver.
Event policies include running in all weather, cancellation only for force majeure, no refunds or credits if cancelled, no bib transfers, no pacers on course, and a pack it in pack it out rule. Dogs are allowed in the festivities area on leash but are not permitted on the course. A discounted camping rate has been arranged at the Golden Municipal Campground and the campsite is located near the Start/Finish. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
