963 Beulah Challenge
The 963 Beulah Challenge is a timed night trail event hosted by Terrain Trail Runners at Greensfelder County Park in Wildwood, Missouri. The course uses the Beulah Loop, a 4.2 mile single track trail with roughly 397 feet of elevation gain and loss per loop. The trail surface is all dirt with rocks and roots; a solid headlamp and personal hydration are recommended.
The event is offered as timed efforts with three options and loop targets:
- 9 Hours: 50K, 8 loops
- 6 Hours: 25.2 miles, 6 loops
- 3 Hours: 12.6 miles, 3 loops
Race headquarters and the single aid station are at the Beulah Shelter. Runners will pass the aid station once every loop and may leave drop bags at the shelter at check in. The event is capped at 75 participants. There are no formal awards, medals, or post-race meals; a souvenir is provided for completing each distance. Custom event swag is available for purchase onsite.
A portion of proceeds is donated to Gateway Off Road Cyclists to support local trail work. The race is part of the Trail Mix Fund to help remove financial barriers to trail running. This is a no crew, no pacers, and no spectators event, and it is cup free so runners must bring their own drinking receptacle and mess kit.
