Cedar Bend Endurance Run
The Cedar Bend Endurance Run takes place at Cedar Bend Park north of Waverly, Iowa, on September 4, 2027. The event offers timed endurance formats over multiple hours and uses a looped trail course inside the park. The park address is 1267 205th St, Waverly, IA 50677.
Event options:
- 4 hour endurance run
- 8 hour endurance run
The course is an approximately 3.15 mile loop that runs around the park perimeter. Each loop contains roughly 200 feet of elevation gain. Trails are generally maintained but include some technical sections. About one fifth of each loop is on gravel and the remainder is trail.
A fully stocked aid station is located at the main start and finish area. Only laps completed within the allotted event time are officially recorded. Runners registered for the 8 hour event may change to the 4 hour option during registration without refund; runners registered for the 4 hour event may not upgrade to the 8 hour.
Crews are permitted with limited parking; organizers request small setups no larger than a 10x10 tent and recommend bringing a single vehicle per crew. The trail remains open to non race traffic and no aid is allowed outside the main aid station. Awards are given to the top three overall male and top three overall female finishers in each timed event, with earlier completion used to break ties.
