Rock Bridge Revenge

Rock Bridge Revenge takes place in Columbia, Missouri, on October 17, 2026, organized by the Columbia Track Club. Two trail distances are offered: a 50K (31 miles) and a 25K (15.5 miles), both run on the trails at Rock Bridge in central Missouri.

The pairing is a common and useful one, because it lets a runner choose based on where their training actually is rather than where they hoped it would be. The 25K is a manageable step for someone who races road half marathons and wants a first experience of Midwest singletrack, with roots and short punchy climbs replacing the steady rhythm of pavement. The 50K is the standard first ultra, and a 16-week build with a long run reaching three to four hours, plus practice eating on the move, covers the ground you need.
