Berryman 50 Mile and Marathon Trail Races

The Berryman 50 Mile and Marathon Trail Races, held at Berryman Campground in the Mark Twain National Forest, Potosi, MO, is a celebrated annual event, marking its 25th edition in 2025. Participants can choose between a challenging 50-mile race or a marathon, both traversing a scenic 26-mile single-track loop with significant elevation changes. The event emphasizes sustainability by being "cupless," requiring runners to carry their hydration. Post-race, a BBQ will be available for participants. Registration opens on December 1, 2024, and various lodging options are available nearby for attendees. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
