Today Niseko Adventure Center held it’s annual Trail Run in Niseko. The popular race is divided into 3 different courses 3km, 10km and 30kms. Today’s weather was not picture perfect with driving rain, gusty winds and the occasional flash of lightening – this did set the scene for some dramatic imagery.

With over 300 participants participating the courses quickly became very wet and heavy.

Most of these shots were taken of runners in the 10km class on the Niseko Higashiyama Hiking Trail. We were unable to venture out into the outer realm of the 30km class!
