Tenderfoot Boogie : Whistler, BC (19 June 2027)
Tenderfoot Boogie is a trail running event with three distances held at Bayly Park, south of Whistler, British Columbia. The courses run through west coast forests along glacier-fed streams and the Cheakamus River and use sections of the Sea-to-Sky Trail. Terrain is mostly runnable with some very technical sections on rocky, steep and gravelly trails.
Course formats:
- 12K
- 26K
- 50K
The 12K is a mostly out-and-back route with an initial loop through Bayly Park and an approximate turnaround near the river. The 26K begins with an out-and-back first half and finishes with a loop. The 50K follows an out-and-back first half and a double-lollipop second half, including mountain bike trails maintained by local groups. The official course brings runners close to the Whistler Train Wreck; visiting the wreck is optional and adds a short detour under 100 m.
Aid stations are positioned on each course and provide water, electrolyte drink, energy gels, snacks, first aid and hygiene supplies. The event is cup-free; runners should carry a personal container for fluids. There is no mandatory gear list, but carrying hydration, fuel, extra clothing and a bottle or collapsible cup is recommended. Poles are permitted but not to be used at the start until the field spreads out.
Start and finish are at the gazebo and field by the Bayly Park playground. Parking near the park is limited; participants are asked to consider car pooling and to use nearby parking lots. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
