David's Trail Endurance Run is touted as one of the toughest 50K courses out there, this challenging course takes runners through the Ozarks Mountains along beautiful Lake Norfork. A great mix of single and double track takes you through 2,400+ ft. in elevation gain for the 25K and and 5,000+ for the 50K. Proceeds benefit trail expansion and K12 activities, spreading the word of loving the outdoors!
This is a cupless event! Aid stations are stocked, but you will need your own handheld, reservoir, or purchase a HydraPak Speed Cup for yourself! Cupless Racing Sponsored by HydraPak! January in the Ozarks can mean sunny 45 degree weather or 10 and snowy. 2017 race day was sunny and reached about 70 degrees, 2019 was a blizzardy mess! Race is held rain or shine, sleet or snow! Pack for anything, stay at Rocking Chair Resort, run the race, then hang out us afterward. Cash purses for setting a course record (male & female), prizes, and post-race grub await you at the finish! |
