Yukon River Trail Marathon
|
Whitehorse, Yukon
|
|
Every year the runners receive a take home souvenir of the race - usually a garment with a retail value of about $50.00. Those who run the marathon and half-marathon races will also receive a medallion with the Yukon River Trail Marathon logo. In addition to beautiful scenery and challenging terrain, you will encounter aid stations with water, sports drink and food (and lots of friendly volunteers) at the end of each leg (that is, at km 9.6, 19.6, 30.5) as well as at the start/finish of the race. There are also water stations at intermediary points between checkpoints.
