MIRACLES HAPPEN WHEN WE CONQUER THE GIANT
Runners, Walkers, Crawlers and Cyclists are invited to "Conquer the Giant" from May 1 - 31, 2021 at the 8th Annual Giants Head Grind - Christopher Walker Memorial Race. Proceeds go toward colon cancer detection, diagnostics and research, as well as the upkeep and improvement of the trail system in Giant’s Head Park.
Colon cancer does not rest during a pandemic, and neither will we.
Two Great Options to Participate
This year, you'll have the month of May to complete your race and upload your results to our race site. Results and awards will be calculated in two separate streams — those that complete the race on-location in Summerland, and those who complete it elsewhere.
Awards will be announced on Saturday, June 5.
Virtual On Location
Complete the Giants Head Grind 6.6km, 450m elevation gain by following trail markers from Peach Orchard Park to the top of Giants Head.
Virtual Anywhere 10K
Conquer the Giant from where ever you are! Complete a 10K route at the location of your choice and upload your results to the race site.
Like everything else these days, this year’s race will look a little different.
Whether you're participating virtually on location in Summerland or from another part of the world, you have two price options.
