Grit and Guts Trail Race

The Grit and Guts Trail Race, held in Dardanelle, Arkansas, challenges runners with two distances: a Half Grit and Guts (13.1 miles) and a Full Grit and Guts (20 miles), both on Mt. Nebo. This tough, scenic race features rocky trails with significant elevation changes, combining vertical climbs and fast-flowing sections.

The course starts at Sunset Point and includes landmarks like Lizard Tail, Rim Trail, Sunrise Point, and the Chickalah loop. Aid stations are placed every 4-6 miles. The event is free to enter, with optional commemorative shirts available for purchase.

Proceeds support local cross country teams and Friends of Nebo. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
