The Whole Serie 2026

This page is kept as a past race archive for the May 23, 2026 edition in Mission, BC. Use the links below to find upcoming races in the same area or distance category.

The Whole Serie 2026 opens at Bear Mountain Park in Mission with a trail-running day built around steep, rugged terrain and a compact morning schedule. Runners can choose from 8K, 15K, and 30K distances, with the longer effort doubling the 15K loop.

This is part of a broader Heads Or Trails series that mixes trail running and mountain biking across British Columbia. For runners who like a course with climbing and a strong local trail feel, Bear Mountain is the series opener worth a look.

The event also includes a kids’ race later in the morning, so the day has a community-race feel beyond the main distances.

Bear Mountain uses a trail course on the Bear Mountain network near Mission, with sustained climbs, descents, and technical singletrack. The 30K covers the 15K loop twice.

Start times are staggered by distance, and a kids’ race follows the main events. The published cut-off for the 30K is at Aid Station 3 at 2:30 PM, or 5 hours.
