After a lively event on our Face­book group, the offi­cial run­ners were selected in the 2013 Knee Knacker lot­tery. The list of selected run­ners is posted here, while reg­is­trants not selected in the lot­tery are posted here. Con­grat­u­la­tions to every­one selected for the race. For those not chosen, we send our regrets and hope you’ll con­sider vol­un­teer­ing to help your fellow run­ners cross that finish line.

Printed sets of reg­is­trants, ready for lot­tery night.

At 8pm on Tues­day, March 5, we will start post­ing the 2013 lot­tery results on our Face­book Knee Knacker Group page. The results will be released in batches as we draw names, so grab some pop­corn and hang out with your favourite mobile (or not so mobile) device. If you can’t join us during the post­ings, all the results will be posted a few hours after­wards on our results web­page.

The days are count­ing down to the 2013 entry dead­line on Feb­ru­ary 28. You now have nine days left to reg­is­ter for this year’s lottery!

Reg­is­tra­tion for the 25^th Knee Knacker race is now open. You have until Feb­ru­ary 28, 2013 to reg­is­ter. For all the details, go here.

Hello, fellow trail run­ners & wel­come to the 24^th run­ning of the Knee Knack­er­ing North Shore Trail Run!

Plan­ning is already under­way, and I’m excited to be kick­ing off another ‘Knee Knacker Season’. I want to start by thank­ing our com­mit­tee mem­bers (Enzo Fed­erico, Julie Flynn, Rod Hat­full, Patri­cia Jensen, Tim Jones, Bev McKenna, Dennis Marchant, Glenn Pace, Jeff Trigg and Andrew Wong), vol­un­teers, spon­sors and run­ners who make this such a great event to be a part of. THANK YOU!

As our trail run­ning com­mu­nity con­tin­ues to grow and we see the sport of ultra-running get­ting more and more ‘press’, we rec­og­nize the impact that a run like the Knee Knacker can have, and we have some excit­ing ideas about how to evolve the run. I’ll share more of these ideas over the coming months, but for now the key info lead­ing up to the lot­tery is below.
