Kelli 's thoughts:

We heard about this one last minute and jumped at the opportunity to head to Quebec and try out this new course. Located just 2 hours from Kingston, Ontario the drive was quite scenic. The route there takes you through beautiful horse stables and farms that weave through the countryside. Once you arrive on site, the parking is directly at the vendor village. It was -30 that day, so we bundled up and headed towards the start line. You could choose between amateur, family and elite heats and the sun kept racers motivated even in the brutal elements. A large bonfire kept racers warm while they waited for the start. It was a multi-looped course with varying degrees of elevation. The recent snowfall added to the challenge and kept racers engaged. The creativity of obstacles that were placed along the 6K route were fun and effective testing, push, pull, lift, carry, climb, crawl, drag and slide. Some areas were quite slippery and steep and racers had to slow their pace somewhat to avoid injury. Nice toques for all participants and t-shirts could be purchased separately for $15.00. There was one vendor on site for a quick bite and 2 port-o-potties for nervous pees. Well organized, creative and a nice location for those looking for some beautiful wooded trails and ravines with a festive winter feel.
