Bleak Midwinter Endurance Run
The Bleak Midwinter Endurance Run is an annual timed endurance event held at the Sac River Mountain Bike Trails near Springfield, Missouri. Participants can choose from 12, 6, 3, or 1-hour run options on a new 4.15-mile loop featuring moderately technical single-track terrain with rocks, roots, and about 400 feet of elevation gain per lap. The course winds through hardwood forests and glades, with runners starting counterclockwise and allowed to switch directions after the first lap.
A single aid station at the start/finish provides food, drinks, and support. The event offers custom swag, special awards for 50K and 50M finishers, and benefits the Missouri Baptist Children's Home. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
