EVERY TUESDAY FROM APRIL 2ND - MAY 21ST @ 6:30PM

Come run the trails with us!

Our inaugural trail running clinic has arrived - Fit First is here to help you train for upcoming summer races, meet new adventure buddies, and explore your beautiful backyard trails with an enthusiastic group of local trail runners!

Join us as we explore our local trails together and train to complete a local mountain race - this year we have our sights set on ‘Conquer The Vedder” 15 km trail race in Chilliwack BC (presented by Coast Mountain Trail Series and sponsored by Salomon).

This trail clinic is perfect for the novice runner - you should be able to comfortably run 8-10 kms on trails (with some elevation) at the start, as well as have a general understanding of the risks involved with running through the wilderness. If you’re new to the trails- no problem! We will be here for you every step of the way.

Led by seasoned trail runners, our clinic intends to provide you with the skills and confidence to tackle any trail, while building a supportive and encouraging running community. Because it’s not just about the run - it’s about the camaraderie, the sense of accomplishment, and the sheer joy of exploring nature's playground!

So lace up your trail shoes, pack your sense of adventure, and join us for an experience that will enhance your fitness, speed, and strength - right in your own backyard!

Our 8-week trail clinic offers: 

• 8 weekly runs on Burnaby Mountain (Tuesday evenings) + 2 optional guided ‘field trip’ runs (Buntzen Lake & North Shore - routes TBD)

• Pace Groups - although this is not a ‘beginners’ trail clinic, we will provide options to match your abilities and goals (all participants should be comfortable running 10 kms with some significant elevation before starting the clinic)

• Progressional training - we organize the routes and incremental training plan so you can gradually improve your fitness, endurance, and speed.

• Our clinic is proudly sponsored by Salomon - a leader in the outdoor apparel world - with a demo night on Tuesday April 9th. A great opportunity to try their shoes and chat with a Salomon representative about how they can improve your experience on the trails!

• All participants will recieve a 15% discount at the store and there will be weekly prizes given throughout the clinic!
