Berryman 50 Mile and Marathon Trail Races
May 16 @ 6:00 am - 8:00 pm
The historic Berryman Trail is an approximately 26.4-mile single-track loop located in the Mark Twain National Forest. Run one loop for the Marathon, and two loops for the 50+-Mile race. The loop is entirely forested and continuously hilly, with a total elevation gain/loss of 2500 ft/2500 ft per loop. There are plenty of rocks and roots, and at least two opportunities to get your feet wet before and after the Brazil Creek aid station at mile 16 (and mile 42 on 2nd loop). The course crosses many other small stream beds that may or may not have water in them depending on recent rainfall. The race is run in the clock-wise direction.
The Berryman Trail is part of the Ozark Trail system maintained by the Ozark Trail Association, SLUGs, and other user groups. The west side of the Berryman loop shares 12 miles with the main corridor of the Ozark Trail and the course of the OT100.
