The Next Loop Endurance Series - Lake Carl Blackwell

The event is staged at Lake Carl Blackwell in Stillwater, OK, with the course formed by a clearly marked 3.1 mile loop. Runners return each lap to the same central start and finish area where a fully stocked aid station is located.

The trail is a mix of dirt paths, grass, and lightly packed earth, with gentle rolling elevation and several wide sections. The surface and layout offer generally good footing on lakeside terrain, open grasslands, and wooded sections, making repeated laps feasible for longer efforts.

The format is loop based: all athletes begin together, complete one 5K loop at a time, and may choose whether to continue after each lap. Each completed loop is counted and recorded; there are no cutoffs that force elimination. This progression model lets participants test pacing, nutrition, and endurance incrementally.
