Produced by Terrain Trail Runners, Rockin' Rockwoods is a trail race with distance options of 53K and 1/2 Marathon held at Rockwoods Reservation, 1,843 acres of state forest and conservation area in Wildwood, Missouri. Wikipedia says Rockwoods supports a diverse array of native plant and animal life and contains geologically interesting rock formations and ecologically important springs and caves.
Super. We're gonna rock that s**t.

Whether you're in it to win it or just to take it easy and finish, that's cool. Our aim is to have fun, help grow the regional ultra-running community, and eventually make mad cash when we hit it big! Well, not that last part.

In addition, we are proud to be part of the 50K Mashup series of ultra races held throughout the Midwest. Those who register for and complete five of the seven 50K Mashup races in a calendar year will receive a belt buckle, along with the chance to win awards given out to the top three male and top three female finishers based on their cumulative finish times for all the races.

***Rockin' Rockwoods is a trail ultra race held at Rockwoods Reservation in St. Louis County, MO. Mileage is 53K (out and back) or 13.1 (out and back). The route will start on Green Rock trail and go from there.***
