P.A.C.E. Trail Runs hosts a variety of events in beautiful British Columbia. We are a small, family owned series whose goal is simple: To offer runners a professional, memorable, scenic and challenging race series that feels inclusive and welcoming to all. 

We work hard to keep our events grassroots, with handmade, home grown touches; apple pies, jams, handmade ceramic finishers medals, handmade stained glass, coffee (roasted by the race director and her husband) and ensuring runners have an experience that feels more like coming home or a family reunion. 

We have strong environmental & community values, such as composting and recycling, and we support local charities by donating a portion of our race fees back to the trail groups that build, maintain and advocate for the trails we are so privileged to enjoy. 

We want to thank you for taking time to visit the P.A.C.E. Trail Runs website and we hope to welcome you into the #pacefamily in 2025.
