The Tail Chaser
The Tail Chaser takes place at Albion Hills Conservation Area in Caledon, ON. The event uses two distinct 6.7 km loops run in an alternating pattern, changing direction each lap. Each loop has roughly 150 m of elevation and a mix of single-track, double-track, roots, pine-needle paths and hard-packed dirt.
Race options
- 24 Hour Solo: run one 6.7 km loop every hour
- 24 Hour Relay (2 person): alternate loops with a partner
- 24 Hour Team (2 person): both teammates run solo loops; combined total counts
- 12 Hour: same format as 24 hour in a shorter time window
- 6 Hour: same format; introductory backyard ultra option
Every loop starts at the top of the hour and runners must cross the finish line and be inside the corral before the next hour to continue. There is one aid station at the start/finish offering water, Skratch Labs drinks and varying food; hot food will be available later in the day and night. No crew access or pacers are allowed on course; crews may be at the start/finish area only. Noise restrictions apply overnight.
Race kit pick up is available at the chalet with a Friday evening slot and a Saturday morning slot. Limited camping spaces are available through the park; camping fees are roughly 50 USD per night. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
