On July 14th, hundreds of athletes will descend on Whistler to compete in the steepest race in the world – Red Bull 400.

Racers will start at the bottom on Whistler’s ski jump and race 400 m to the top. Running 400m doesn’t sound like much of a challenge – but when those 400m are at a height gain close to 140m and as a pure uphill sprint – it is the ultimate endurance test.

Date: July 14th

Time: Registration opens at 8:30am and races are 10:30am – 3:30pm

Location: Whistler Olympic Park, Whistler Canada
