Busiek Crazy 8s

Busiek Crazy 8's Ultra is held at Busiek State Park in Highlandville, Missouri. It is an ultramarathon offering a 32-mile course built from looping an 8-mile trail within the park. Participants strive to complete as many loops as possible within an eight-hour time limit.

The event emphasizes a straightforward lap format, with runners repeatedly traversing the same 8-mile segment to reach the distance, set in a park setting—Busiek State Forest area. Organized by SGF Run Co, the race is listed on Ultrasignup as the registration hub. This format suits endurance runners who prefer a predictable, repetitive course over a single longer loop.
