The Next Loop Endurance Series - Tyler

The event is the 50 Mile Challenge, part of The Next Loop Endurance Series. It is a continuous 50-mile trail race on a 3.1-mile (5K) loop in Tyler, Texas. The loop is a scenic trail; minor distance variation is expected due to terrain. The race format is a continuous run, not hourly, with a 12-hour cutoff from the start.

Runners complete approximately 16 loops to reach 50 miles. The event has a mass start and a field limit of 75 runners. It features a fully stocked start/finish aid station accessible every loop. A dedicated staging area for the 50-mile competitors is available for personal gear. The race uses chip timing, and splits are posted for every completed 5K loop.

Pacers are permitted after 4:00 PM and must check in and wear official identification. Age group divisions include Open, Masters (ages 50–69), and Grand Masters (ages 70+). The event is produced by EverFurther Events. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
