The Sea2Sky Trail Run Challenge
NEW FOR 2024
Revised route making our trail run more or less 100% trails. Instead of running along the Summit Road from Evans Pass as in past years runners will now take on the Crater Rim Track to Godley Head. It’s harder but more scenic.
Team option - teams will be 2 people with one runner doing leg 1 to Godley Head (approximately 8.5km) before the second team member takes on the leg from Godley Head to Scarborough (approximately 7.5km). Runners will be transported to/from Godley Head by bus (the bus will not come back from Godley Head until all riders are off the course at 10:30am).
Take on this stunning 16km run up the Captain Thomas track to the top of Evans Pass, along the Crater Rim Track to Godley head where you will join the triathletes and duathletes for the beautiful Godley Head track. Finally you will have the slog over Scarborough Hill via the Taylors Mistake track, then down the Scarborough track to the finish at the clocktower.
An aid station will be available at Godley Head and Taylors Mistake.

There will be a cut off time off at Godley Head of 1hr 45 minutes. This point is ~9km into the run but includes the long climb to the top of Evans Pass. In past years everyone has made the cut off but if you were to walk the whole way you would not make the time.
*** GODLEY HEAD POSSIBLE CHANGE****
There is currently remediation work happening at Godley Head, we will not know until closer to the race if we can take the advertised route to the gun emplacements or use the alternate route as per the last few years. Whichever route is used will be well marked
