Tentative Schedule:
Registration is OPEN (as of Feb 25, 10am)!
Athletes are encouraged to register early to ensure a spot and to receive all race communications!
Thursday April 2nd
- Registration closes (if not already full). In 2018 and 2019, the event sold out in ~2 weeks. We anticipate selling out again. Don’t miss out!
Friday April 3rd
- We’ll have Friday package pickup during Escape Route Whistler’s normal business hours. This way you don’t have to stand in line the next morning. You can also buy some shit from Escape Route as a thank you for making this race happen!
- Final race course details announced via social media, email blast, and website by 8pm.
Saturday April 4th
This timeframe will almost certainly change in the week leading up to race day. We will email a final time schedule for race day to all registered racers (as well as updating this page) by Friday (April 4) morning. That being said, plan for an early start (best to stay in Whistler Friday night), and plan for a full day of ski fun!
