The Prairie Inn Harriers Running Club is pleased to present the 36th Annual Harriers 2:18 Run Elk/Beaver Ultras.  The fast and flat 10 kilometre trail circuit around Elk and Beaver Lakes is considered as one of the premiere races of its type in North America.  Runners complete 10 laps for the 100K division, 8+ laps for 50 Miles and 5 laps for 50K while walkers complete 4 laps for 40K.  The venue is all trails, very flat, has good footing, and is in excellent condition. It is definitely a runner-friendly, P.R. type of course!

5:15 pm Tuesdays – Weekly after-work interval workout using various local roads, parks, and trails. Every week is different and everyone is welcome. The faster runners will pick up slower runners on the final lap.

2023 Schedule

8:00 am Saturdays – Saturday morning group trail runs take place every week throughout the year in Thetis Lake Park and Francis King Park.  We meet at 8:00 am at the main Thetis Lake parking lot at the end of Six Mile Road from October through the end of April.  For the warmer months of May through September we meet at the small parking area at Prior Lake on Highland Road.

This is the classic Prairie Inn Harriers weekly social run with groups ranging from slow to moderate to fast.  All runners, dogs and walkers are welcome.  You don't have to be a club member to join in as there is no fee to participate.  If you are unfamiliar with the park trails this is a great way to learn the trail network.  Group Leaders are available for all paces.  No one gets lost or left behind.

A fall challenge on character trails. Often muddy, wet and slippery. Two distances to choose from, with a classic climb to the summit of Stewart Mountain on the long course.
