The Next Loop Endurance Series - Pinnacle Mountain
The event takes place on November 7, 2026 at Pinnacle Mountain State Park in Roland, Arkansas. Race headquarters is the Big Maumelle Pavilion. Both challenges use the same approximately 3.4 mile trail loop on a trail surface.
There are two event formats on the same course. The Hourly Challenge sends runners out to start one loop every hour; participants finish a loop, recover, and then may start the next hourly loop. The Hourly Challenge has no required distance, every loop counts, and it is not a continuous race.
The distance challenge is continuous running or walking for a chosen target with a 34 hour cutoff. Available individual and team options include:
- The Next Loop Hourly Challenge no required distance
- 50K
- 50 miles
- 100K
- 100 miles
- 50 miles 2 person team relay
- 50 miles 4 person team relay
Aid is provided at the Big Maumelle Pavilion each loop and includes snacks, water, and some warm food at night. Tailwind Nutrition is available; gels are not supplied. Pacers are permitted after the fourth loop, one at a time. Packet pickup and required briefings occur the day before and the morning of the event. Overnight camping in the park is not normally allowed. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
