What better way to spend a sunny Sunday than to run 26 km through the trails. From the Rubble Creek website - here is a course description
The Rubble Creek Classic climbs from Cheakamus Lake trail up (2915ft) and across Helm Creek flats giving spectacular panoramic views along the way. With the final a knee jarring decent of 4015ft. to finish at the Rubble creek Parking lot.
Sounds like exactly the kind of race that would appeal to our trail running enthusiasts. John, Terry and Ellie took on the challenge - with Sukhi as their chauffeur.
Ellie won - of course! (2:19)`John was the fastest in his age group (2:40) even though they don’t officially recognize age groups. And Terry had the best fall. In fact Terry should win a perseverance award because he finished the race despite having broken a couple of ribs en route. They were so worried about getting him some medical attention when he crossed the finish line that they forgot to record his time - literally adding insult to injury. But he officially finished. Hope you heal quickly Terry!
