The Cedar Ultra is a 3/6/12/24 hour solo ultramarathon and 2, 3 or 4 person relay in beautiful Hermer Provincial Park, Cedar BC. You will compete against the clock to see how far you or your team can go. Whoever runs the farthest wins!

Cedar Ultra Race Format

There will be a marked loop on the trails in Hermer Park 3.3km a solo runner will run as many laps as they can until the last half hour where they will move to a smaller out and back of 1km until the time ends then their distance will be noted. The one who goes the farthest wins.

In the relay format, the team will stay at the Start/Finish area for each loop and switch off as they see fit. Some teams will do 1 lap per person, others will do 2 or 3 depending on their runners and race strategy. It is completely up to the team. In the last hour they will switch to the short course until the time is up. Which ever team goes the farthest wins.
