The Plan
This run will cover approximately 1600 kilometres across Saskatchewan, beginning in Stony Rapids in the north and finishing at the Montana border in the south.
The route follows Saskatchewan’s road network through four distinct regions — the taiga shield, boreal north, the parkland, and the open prairie — each with its own challenges, rhythms, and opportunities. We will be going through Treaties 8, 10, 6, and 4.
Running 50–70 kilometres per day with a small support crew, the journey will take place over several weeks, moving steadily south, one day at a time.
Little by little, one travels far.

Three Sections
The Northern Section
Stony Rapids → La Ronge
The run begins as far north as you can drive in Saskatchewan, just south of the Northwest Territories.
This section follows Highway 905, starting with nearly 470 km of unpaved road through remote boreal forest and Canadian Shield landscape. Services are limited, and careful planning is required for safety, communication, and resupply.
We will be camping along the way, with long days, simple routines, and extended daylight near the summer solstice. This section will be crewed by my dad and brother, both deeply experienced in northern environments.
Around 663 km 
The Central Section
La Ronge → Near Saskatoon
This section transitions from the north into Saskatchewan’s parkland region.
The route includes a mix of gravel and paved roads, passing through Prince Albert National Park and surrounding farmland before continuing south toward Saskatoon. This part of the province feels familiar to me, shaped by time spent in the park and Lakeland area.
Crew support becomes more dynamic here, with friends joining for pacing, driving, and camp support. It’s a balance of steady movement and shared experience, as the run moves closer to more populated areas.
Around 450 km 
Between 450 and 500 kmThe Southern Section
Saskatoon → Southern Terminus
The final section brings the run through the open prairie toward the southern border.
The route here is less direct and still being finalized, but it will end near the area where my mom was born. By this point, cumulative fatigue, weather, and exposure will be part of the daily experience — wind, sun, and long stretches of open road.
This section will be supported by family and close friends, creating a full-circle finish to the journey.
Because this is a supported run, it takes a whole team. If you would like to get involved, there are a few ways.
