    This is a challenging 7K course. This course at least the 7k course seems fairly technical. I really enjoyed the scenery again this year. During this time of year as you can expect it was chilly. The production and organization is top notch. Although I have not run the 25k or 50k I have heard very good things about those as well. I hope you choose to run David’s Trail Endurance Run.

    David’s Trail was a wonderful experience. This was my first trail run. I found it challenging but not to challenging. The trail meanders around Lake Norfork with outstanding views. The organizers of this race do an outstanding job of making you feel welcome. The Swag is also good. This is an event I hope to do each year but would like to move to the 25k. I would recommend this event to anyone wanting to start their trail running. I think they would find it very low stress and the people friendly.

    This race is held at Rocking Chair Resort. If your traveling in for the race it would be a great place to stay as your right at the start/finish line. It does sell out so make your registrations early.
    The one thing you have to watch is the weather. The previous year it rained/sleeted/snowed which made the course very difficult. This year it rained on Friday so it was slippery. I wore true trail running shoes this year which kept me upright.
    I plan on going back to hike this trail again as it is a good workout. The trail is maintained. The course was marked to keep folks from getting lost.
    As far as swag they have a very soft t-shirt and a medal for those who completed the race. This race is cupless and they also ask that you bring plates/silverware/etc for the after race food/beer. Also there were some free race pics from the event shared to their facebook page.
