Suffer Better Fall Trail Runs
This event is a day of trail races at Staunton State Park in Pine, Colorado, on October 10, 2026. The start and finish area is at the Lazy V Parking lot, about 1.5 miles into the park. Parking at the park is limited and the park is expected to be busy that day.
Distances offered
- 50K (approximately 31 miles) on runnable singletrack trails.
- 25K single loop on the park trails.
- 25K FishSlappers division same course as the 25K with the additional requirement of catching a trout at Elk Falls Pond.
- 5K a short, very steep trail run.
Course and support include four aid stations positioned along the routes; the 50K passes each aid station twice. Aid stations provide water and a hydration drink called gNarly, and volunteers assist with hydration and nutrition. The event is bottle free and cup free, so runners must carry their own bottles.
Course maps, GPX files, and written course descriptions are provided for each distance. The event raises funds for Conservation Colorado, Western Resource Advocates, and Running Rivers, and includes an award for the runner who raises the most funds by race day.
