The fourth stop on the Vancouver Island Trail Series takes place this coming weekend in Ladysmith.
Starting from Transfer Beach, runners will go through the pediestrian crossing tunnel before
some big climbs that reach amazing views of Holland Creek and the waterfall.
There is a 16-kilometre route which takes runners up 265 metres of vertical gain, including
a 15 minute ‘lung busting climb’ up to Heart Lake.
For those looking to keep their breakfast down, you’ll still be challenged by the
short course route - a nine kilometre run with 155 metres of gain.
The run starts at 10:45 a.m. and goes until 2 p.m. You can register and view a
course map at www.islandtrailseries.ca.
