About the Event

Dive into a multi-sport frontier at the Lake of the Ozarks Endurance Runs on May 2, 2026, where Missouri's largest state park transforms into a rugged playground for three distinct challenges. Choose your adventure: test your speed on the Wandering Bobcat 5-miler, embrace the wooded climbs of the Trail of Four Winds 25K, or conquer the iconic LOZ Traverse—a unique 35-mile blend of 32 miles of trail running and 3 miles of open-water paddling across the lake's expanse. Each course unveils the raw beauty of the Ozarks, with rocky outcrops, spring dogwoods, and stunning lake vistas serving as your backdrop throughout a day of relentless forward motion. The event culminates in a vibrant lakeside TrailFest, complete with live music, local vendors, and a celebratory atmosphere at Public Beach #1. Whether you're crossing the finish line of your first trail race or navigating the demanding traverse solo, the 2026 edition promises an authentic community experience where every finisher’s achievement is honored. Secure your spot and prepare to write your own story on the trails of Kaiser, Missouri, where endurance meets the enduring spirit of the lake.
