Nippy Niner & Nippy Nine K Trail Runs

  The Nippy Niner is a nine mile (15K) paved, gravel and off-road trail run. For 2020 the Nippy Niner Trail run will head to higher ground and take place in Spanish Lake Park just above the Confluence Conservation Area. The race will begin on paved trail around Spanish Lake before heading into the double track, gravel, and single track around the upper Sunflower Lake. 9 Mile competitors will complete two laps of the trail section, 9K competitors will complete one off-road loop. (This is the same route used in 2016 due to similar trail damage). There will be a bit more elevation gain on this loop than in the river bottoms. Both distances will be extra nippy. Fast, Flat and extra Nippy.

The Nippy 9K is a shorter version of the race, starting at the same time.
