Spruce Woods Ultra
|
Brandon, Manitoba
|
|
The Spruce Woods Ultra race is unlike any other event in the province. First, it?s tough. Although it?s a run in the park, it is unlike any other run in the park you?ve seen in Manitoba. OK, so it?s not ?up-a-mountain? tough like what you?ll find out west, but with over 1800 feet of climbing in 26.2 miles and a few more in the 50km, that Bishop Grandin bridge you might have ran on Father?s Day will be put in it?s place like the minor bump that it is.
