Races in Vancouver Island
Victoria and the towns around it hold most of the island's races; the rest are spread up-island through Duncan, Nanaimo, Qualicum Beach, Courtenay and Campbell River, with trail races in the forest above Cumberland and the occasional start out on the west coast at Ucluelet.
50 races with a confirmed date across View Royal, Parksville, Victoria, Courtenay, Saanichton, Cobble Hill, Nanaimo, Campbell River and more, plus 50 that ran last season and haven't announced their next one.
