What's the Deal for 2018?

Storm the Trent logos
Some of you may already be asking - what's with the new logo/look for Storm the Trent?  Is this Haliburton race a separate event from the usual one?  Haliburton isn't on the Trent...

Not to worry - Storm the Trent is still as per usual!  The only difference is the change of location and change of date.  We're always looking into options for new host regions to keep things fresh each year, and while Haliburton is admittedly outside of our usual venue sphere, it presents some pretty fantastic opportunities for racecourse design.  An adventure race featuring three separate courses has some pretty specific hosting requirements, but numerous scouting trips over the summer confirmed that all of the elements needed are here in abundance.   We're super-excited about all that we discovered, and can't wait to unveil it on May 26-27!

As for the date change, this is actually the same weekend as our original STT events back in the early 2000's.  Given the unpredictability of  mid-May weather in recent years, we recognized that a move further north would require a little more buffer time for course conditions to improve.  We also recognized that the lingering cooler temps over the last few Springs have made it tricky for many racers to log any decent training time between when the snow and ice finally clears and the lead-up to Race Day.  And we figured that hosting a race that's not on Mother's Day would score us some points as well.... :)
