Hello everyone,
I just recently moved to Squamish and would like to get in contact with racers in the British Columbia area. Most of the races around the area start later in the year right? Can't wait to do a race here!
If you are from BC and or knows about races around the area, please let me know!
Paula
Hi Paula. My AR coach, Jen Segger, lives in Squamish. Here's her website:

You looking at the sprint type? Or expedition?
I'm in BC, but not local to you. But know of most of the race directors and racers in this province.
Sadly there aren't that many races left in BC. MOMAR in Cumberland is the only one that comes to mind this year. Lots of trail running, mtb, orienteering events though. And plenty of other stuff to keep you busy… Squamish is a pretty nice place to explore.
Willderness (AP name) trains up that way sometimes ... but he's not back (to UBC) until September.
If you feel like crossing the boarder there are some races in northern Washington:

Both are sprint races. Little farther south in Oregon there is 30 hour race later in the summer.

Runninghills Im gonna deffo check her website and try to contact her!
Urthbuoy: Im looking for both, but most importantly, I want to form a team!
When is you guys next race?
So pumped with training and exploring Squamish but dude I miss racinggggg!
Another vote for Jen Segger! Even though I live in Ontario I worked with her remotely a few years back when prepping for Raid the North Extreme. Tough workouts but really encouraging!
John markez lives in Squamish last time I checked. He'd be a good contact fornAR and any local training opportunities.
