What is the Iron Horse Ultra 100?
An organized footrace in which soloists or teams have the option to run 100km or 100miles on one of the most challenging and beautiful off-road courses in Western Canada. The route will cover the beautiful farmlands, lake shores, and riverside of the county of St Paul while incorporating the old abandoned CNR railroad. The Iron Horse Ultra 100 will also showcase the towns of St Paul and Elk Point and give the area residents an opportunity to show how friendly they really are!
As a part of the Alberta Ultra Series the Iron Horse Ultra 100 will test the endurance of all runners. All the challenges of a Mountain course without the Altitude!!
Post race update:
We had another very successful race this past weekend. There was a few issues with markers (missing), low temperatures (-7C) and equipment not working properly, but all in all we had generally positive feedback on the race. I would like to thank the runners for a great race; landowners for letting us use your beautiful land, the sponsors for your donations to the race, and last but definitely not least to all the volunteers who help put on the Iron horse Ultra 100.
Special Note: The organizing committee is in the process of changes, stepping down into an advisory positions are John and Jim Weinmeier, while Anna Leskiw is in the process of redefining her position. A new organizing committee will be announced in the new year.
Thanks,
James Weinmeier
