Doggone Tired Ultra

The Doggone Tired Ultra is a trail running event held at Rodgers Park in Vinton, Iowa. It offers two race distances: a 50K ultra and a 10-mile run. The course features a scenic 10-mile loop around the park’s lake and campground, including wood chip trails, grassy fields, wooded technical sections, and about 3.5 miles on low-traffic gravel roads.

Runners complete three laps for the ultra. Amenities include five bathroom stops, shower facilities, and two aid stations stocked with various foods and drinks. Pacers are allowed starting the third lap, and post-race food is provided.

The event emphasizes a friendly, supportive atmosphere in a quiet park setting. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
