shaw bloom trail 10k/20k
Race day: April 12, 2025
events: 10k: 9:00 & 20k: 8:30
Location: Shaw Nature Reserve, Gray Summit, Mo
Keep the trail miles rolling in 2025 with your choice of a 10k or 20k Trail Run through through one of eastern Missouri’s most beautiful locales, the Shaw Nature Reserve in Gray Summit, Mo.
The 10k loop course features a little bit of everything trail running has to offer: from grass meadows to gravel hiking paths, rocky single-track to dirt roads, steep cliffs to rolling hills, and even a boardwalk above a lily-filled lake! Tackle it twice if you feel like doing the 20k!
Packet Pick-Up Update:
Packet pick-up will be at Alpine Shop Kirkwood on Friday, April 11 between 6 and 7 pm. Or, you can pick up your packet the morning of the race between 7–9 am at Race HQ at Shaw Nature Reserve.
The 2024 course features the most single-track we’ve ever been able to include on the Shaw Bloom course. Check out course updates in the link here!
T-shirts, medals, beer, Great Harvest snacks, 4 Hands Brewing Co. Beer and more.
One of Eastern Missouri’s most beautiful locales, and quite possibly the most picturesque trail run host in the Midwest.
Like many of the the Off-Road Racing League events, Shaw Bloom Trail 10k/20k is regulated by a strict number of runners we can allow on the trails for the safety of the participants and the protection of the natural lands. For 2024, the good folks at Missouri Botanical Gardens and the Shaw Nature Reserve have asked us to keep our maximum capacity at 500 runners. If you’re interested in running (and we hope you are!), please keep that in mind and register as quickly as you can to ensure a spot on this year’s roster.
