Description:

The actual course layout and location has varied through the years, but the WITP has always taken place within the City Limits of Kamloops. The current course was developed in 2016 to coincide with the 25th Anniversary Run. The WITP now takes runners around a 25km Cloverleaf loop (2 loops for the 50k). The layout also accommodates a shorter 14km distance on the perimeter of the 25k loops. The 14k has just a little less elevation gain to make it a great middle-of-the-road run for those who want to stretch their legs a bit and still soak in the atmosphere of an Ultramarathon Trail run. Of note is that the 25k loop runs slightly long (according to previous averaged GPS results), so it actually works out to 25.5k and 51k for those that want to know exactly how long they have to run.
