Unveiling the official artwork for Chattajack 2026 — created by the incredibly talented Annie Davidson of Australia 🇦🇺

2026: The Year of the Hourglass. 31 miles connecting effort, grit, the grind, place, flow, friends, families, community, and time.

Heading into year 15, the hourglass just feels relevant. Like a favorite snow globe but with a stopwatch. Every stroke. Each year. Every paddler. Each story. Friendships formed. Bonds solidified.

We'll focus on a race experience that brings all the feels to the forefront, you focus on a strong personalized race plan!

Thank you to Annie for bringing this vision to life.
