All races begin at the Bagnell Dam Scenic Overlook; racers are shuttled to the start line. The half marathon course is certified. Pace group leaders will be available for half marathon runners. Proceeds benefit local charities including Wonderland Camp, Lake of the Ozarks Shrine Club, and Lake Area Big Brothers Big Sisters.

Race entries include a high-quality turquoise Bella Canvas race shirt with the event logo and the race medal image on the back. All finishers receive a custom finisher medal that features Bagnell Dam; 2026 medal sizes are 3 inches for the 5k, 3.5 inches for the 10k, and 4 inches for the half marathon. The 2026 medal is the second in a three-year series. Virtual race options are offered for an additional $10 to cover shipping costs.
