The Marathon Shuffle is a 30km trail run/walk on the Sunshine Coast Trail near Powell River, British Columbia. 

The Sunshine Coast Trail a relatively undiscovered jewel of a trail that stretches 160km from Desolation Sound in the north to the Saltery Bay ferry terminal in the south. "Father" of the Sunshine Coast Trail, Eagle Waltz, created the trail to help save remaining stands of old growth rainforest and raise awareness about the outdoors.  

The Marathon Shuffle is a new CFA event with a long standing history. Since 1991, Eagle has hosted the "Shuffle" as a fund-raiser for the Powell River Parks and Wilderness Society (PRPAWS).  A CFA member is the only person to have run the whole SCT and CFA members hold the current course records for the Marathon Shuffle. 

In support of Eagle and his environmental and social goals, CFA has "adopted" the Marathon Shuffle as a Flash Event.  (Free for members and non-members of Club Fat Ass).
