The Wildness

Description: This isn't just any race – it’s a challenge that celebrates endurance, perseverance, and the raw beauty of the outdoors. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Purcell Mountains, we challenge your spirit with a 1 or 2 day racing design and there are 4 different race lengths to choose from! Day 1: Saturday, June 27, 2026 This is where you test your endurance and your overall ability to climb to the mountaintops, traverse the ridgelines, descend the talus and stay fierce in the pine tree forests. This course length will be between 30 and 38 km, with a beefy elevation gain. New to 2026: a 5km Fun Run! This option is available for anyone who is looking for a shorter, fun, trail run just to test out the legs. Great for anyone new to trail running as well! Day 2: Sunday, June 28, 2026 This is a shorter course, but difficult nonetheless! It is designed as an “All Climb, All Descent” route but has an extra challenge with a designated section for a “Timed Ascent” route for a “race within the race.” This course length will be between 10 and 15km with a healthy elevation gain.
