The Go Ottawa Challenge

Bike, kayak and run through Ottawa's scenic routes.  

This race will consist of three components: biking, kayaking, and trail running. Participants will bike from Arrowhead Park to the Reservoir to the back of the Putnam County Fairgrounds, then kayak back to Arrowhead Park, then run the trail at Arrowhead Park. The biking is approximately 2.75 miles, kayaking approximately 2.5 miles and trail running approximately 0.75 miles. We hope for this to be a fun and challenging event for for all ages. For some the challenge will be: can you complete it? While for others the challenge may be: how fast can you complete it? Either way, it should be a good time.

We have changed the route a bit from last year, to hopefully avoid the water being too low to race. However, if we do run into low river levels, we will use an alternative route kayaking on the Ottawa Reservoir. 

Proceeds go to Go Ottawa and our efforts towards making Ottawa more walkable, bikeable and floatable! Race registration includes free t-shirt if registered before 9/20 and a free drink ticket for the end of the race!
