About

A fast, competitive trail race showcasing one of Kansas City’s standout trail systems, this course follows a large clockwise loop almost entirely on smooth singletrack. Runners get a full tour of the area with only a brief break from the trail while crossing the lake dam, keeping the experience flowing and consistent from start to finish. The terrain includes some rocks and roots, but it is not especially technical, making it well suited to runners looking for speed without sacrificing the feel of a true trail outing. The atmosphere blends strong racing energy with a welcoming finish, capped by hearty post-race food and drinks that add to the event’s community appeal.
