Stub Stewart Trail Challenge

Stub Stewart Trail Challenge is a multi-distance trail race held at L.L. Stub Stewart State Park in Buxton, Oregon. The course is a fast, 6.5-mile loop that blends Banks-Vernonia Trail pavement with unpaved roads, offering rolling hills and occasional climbs.

Distances this year include a 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, and full marathon, all based on repeating the loop. A standout feature is the flexible finish: runners may stop at any of the distances after starting, with results reflecting their chosen finish. The event is cupless with two aid stations, BYODV, Golden Truckers awards, packet pickup, and a $5 daily park permit. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
