BLUE BULLY ULTRA

Race Date: October 3-5, 2025
Blue Mountain Resort, ON


Three Styles of Racing

Sign up for individual days, or all three at once to be a part of the full weekend experience.

This isn't just a race – it's a full weekend of trail running and fun, designed for every kind of runner. Challenge yourself over three days of trail racing – from fast vertical climbs, to ultra-distance grinds, to a strategic time-based finale. Ontario's only three-day stage race is here, October 3-5. Will you take on the challenge? The weekend offers three styles of race, all set to the backdrop of the changing autumn colours of the Bruce Peninsula. The Big Bully consists of the longest distances of all three days, or choose the Little Bully and do the shorter distances.

Day 1: The Stampede

The Friday evening event is short and fast, with as much vertical as we can pack into 5km.

Day 2: The Drive

Saturday is about distance, in this cross-country 50k/25k classic. For buckos aged 15 and under, there is also the Woolly Bully Kids Race.

Day 3: The Round-Up

We wrap up the weekend on Sunday with a 3-hour and 1.5-hour timed loop race. Do as many loops as you can in your time bracket.

There is an award ceremony each day, where the top three female and male finishers will join us on the podium. On Sunday, we have the big awards for the top competitors who raced all three days of the Big Bully and Little Bully.
