The Chiggy Ultra

One Loop - As in years past, it starts out including McGahey Canyon trail, then heading counter clockwise around Cape Chignecto. This will get you approx 2200 meters of Vertical Gain and just over 51 kilometers. On this run you will hit 3 Aid Stations, and probably a lot of mud. It's mostly single track technical trail. Are you ready for an adventure?

Two Loops - Finish one loop and are you prepared to complete what not many have, a second loop. One has some serious bragging rights. Two, twice as many. You will hopefully have a lot of Vert training in the bank. As you head out, those watching you leave will think "Wow, that person must eat galvanized nails for breakfast everyday." The bright side, you'll spend good chunks of your 2nd loop with a lot of others on the trail.

Three Loops - This is arguably the toughest accomplishment in the Maritime Provinces. What makes us so sure? Only ONE person has completed this loop 3 times at our race. If you sign up for this, you are an animal. You might get to experience not one, but two sunrises at Beautiful Cape Chignecto Park. But seriously, this is no joke. The distance might fall just short of 100 Miles, but the difficulty is NOT short of a 100 miler. You are a beast, just DO it. DO IT! You WILL get a finishing Prize.

OH IF you want to complete an official 100 miler, we can EASILY add an extra small section to achieve that.
