About the David's Trail Endurance Run
The course runs along Lake Norfork through the Ozarks, mixing single and double track with serious climbing spread across the whole route. The elevation change is substantial enough that even the shorter distance feels like work. Weather here can swing anywhere from cold sunshine to snow on the ground, and the race goes regardless.
Packet pickup and race-day logistics are centered at Rocking Chair Resort, which also has lodging if you want to stay on-site. The post-race food is there too, though the race runs cupless throughout, so bring a handheld or a collapsible cup. Bring your own plate and utensils as well.

The David's Trail Endurance Run has been held every year since at least 2016. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
