The National Snowshoe Championships weekend includes the following events:

– National Junior Boys & Girls 5km Snowshoe Championship

– National Senior Men’s 10km Snowshoe Championship
– Citizen’s 5km Snowshoe Run/Walk
– Kid’s Kilo Snowshoe Run/Walk
– 4 x 2.5km Snowshoe Team Relay

Because well over 300 athletes are expected to participate in the 10th Anniversary National Snowshoe Championship events, it is strongly recommended that athletes wishing to qualify chose their regional qualifying event wisely as they may have to compete in more than one regional event in order to secure a berth in the Championships.
