Babler Bongo 15K Trail Race / 15K RUCK
Babler Bongo 15K Trail Race / 15K RUCK is a 15 kilometer trail event taking place on October 24, 2026, at Dr. Edmund A. Babler Memorial State Park, 800 Guy Park Drive, Wildwood, MO 63005. The event is organized by Terrain Trail Runners and includes both a standard foot race and a ruck division held over the same 15 kilometer course.
The ruck division requires participants to carry a backpack, rucksack, or weighted vest with a minimum weight of 20 pounds, not counting water or food used during the event. All ruck division finishers will receive a custom Babler Bongo 15K rucking patch. Five dollars from each ruck division registration will be donated to DOGS for our BRAVE.
Registration is scheduled to open on March 27, 2026. The event listing notes a Trail Mix Fund option to waive entry fees for participants who cannot afford the fee and for applicants from BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities. Photos from prior editions are associated with the event listing. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
