This very exclusive event is limited to approximately 400 participants, who will enjoy the beauty of running around this pristine island, with Aid Stations and Port-A-John approximately every 2km. The course is very well marked and managed, as well as timed, surfaced with a mixture of pavement, gravel, and tar and chip.
Registration includes a Wine-inspired Recovery Shirt Long Sleeve Hoodie, an award-winning medal, bib, and a ticket to the best After-Run Party in running with Wine Tasting.

COVID has left the island with a significantly reduced inventory of rental cottages, BnBs, beds, and even camping spots. So now have an early boat leaving the Leamington mainland at 7:00 am the day of the race, so you can make the race!
Special thanks to the Owen Sound Transportation company for their help and cooperation.
Bring your, friends, and family, to stay the night and enjoy the run in the morning. The night before there will be plenty of dinners and parties going on around the Island, of which you will be notified. You can also buy extra tickets for your guests to join you at the Winery for an extravagant luncheon starting between noon and 1 pm. Adults are $65 and Kids under 11 years of age are $55 each.
THESE TICKETS ARE LIMITED SO BUY NOW, DO NOT WAIT, LUNCHEON TICKETS SELL OUT WHEN THE RACE SELLS OUT.
