Wildwood Trail Marathon

The Wildwood Trail Marathon, hosted by Terrain Trail Runners, takes place in Wildwood, Missouri, starting and finishing at LaSalle Springs Middle School. Scheduled for December 6, 2025, the event offers both marathon and half-marathon distances on scenic, mostly single-track trails featuring a mix of paved greenway, gravel, and dirt surfaces. The marathon course includes approximately 1,700 feet of elevation gain, traversing trails like Hamilton-Carr, Al Foster Memorial, Bluff View, Rock Hollow, and Sherman Beach, while the half marathon covers about 750 feet of elevation gain on a similar route.

This cup-free, eco-friendly race emphasizes sustainability, providing aid stations with water and electrolyte drinks but requiring runners to carry their own reusable cups. Participants receive custom finisher medals, digital race photos, and post-race catered food. The event welcomes runners of all levels seeking a challenging and beautiful trail running experience in the St.

Louis area. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
