The race starts and finishes at the Mount Seymour Resort, atop Mount Seymour, and runners begin by running straight up the mountain. After tagging a lower summit, runners will begin their 1200-meter descent down to the Seymour River far, far below. Along the way, competitors travel through remnants of old-growth forest, mixed in with modern-day bike trails, woodwork, and seemingly never-ending technical terrain underfoot.
