The Tally in the Valley Trail Race takes place in the scenic Dundas Valley Conservation Area in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. This event features a 7km loop through a unique Carolinian forest with rolling hills and about 130m elevation gain per loop. Participants can choose from various distances and formats, including single or multiple loops (7k, 21k, 100 miles), timed races (6, 12, 24 hours), and an elimination-style "Gong Show" event.
The course alternates direction yearly, with the 2025 race running clockwise. Aid stations offer water, electrolytes, and snacks, while all runners receive a soft t-shirt and medals or belt buckles for longer distances. The race supports SickKids Hospital and is sanctioned by Athletics Ontario. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
