All Out Trail Racing

🎉 New Course Record 🎉

Massive congratulations to Joe Stewart who put on a amazing performance at yesterday’s Pick & Shovel Showdown. Running 15 laps (88.4KM) in 7:58:13 seconds, all while it was -16°c out 👏 👏

When Jason and I saw the weather we thought the record was safe but Joe had other plans. Joe will receive a $500 gift card to and we could not be happy to hand it over. What a show 👏

Thanks to our great partners we are able to offer some great prizing for the 2026 Pick & Shovel Showdown.

We’d like to thank everyone listed above for their ongoing support.

There are trail running vests, merino vests, shoes, back packs, socks, and mugs just to name a few things up for grabs. Best part is, you don’t have to win to take home something really nice!

We can’t forget to mention $500 for a new course record. Some people came pretty close last year, let’s go!

Registration for the 2026 Pick & Shovel Showdown opens October 17th at 6pm.

Come join us on January 24th for this one of a kind 8hr format. All the details can be found on our website or the Race Roster page linked in our Bio.

Run as much or as little as you like at your own pace. There will be chili, soups, quesadillas, and lots more food to keep people going.

We’re also offering up an additional $500 to the first female or male to break their divisional course record. We had some people come up close last year, let’s make it happen!

Don’t miss out, spots are limited and this one has always sold out.
