Event Overview
The Next Loop Endurance Series takes place at Eddie D Jones Park in Keithville, Louisiana. This event features a loop-based structure on a 3.1-mile trail course through natural terrain. The format allows participants to complete as many loops as they choose, with each loop starting at the top of every hour.
The course is clearly marked and provides varied views with each lap. Because the event is based on a centralized loop, there is a base area where an aid station provides hydration and basic nutrition before the start of each new hour. This layout also allows spectators and support crews to remain in a central location to assist runners between laps.
Participation and Distances
There are no fixed distance requirements or cut-off penalties. Participants can stop at any time, and every completed loop is recorded as a final result. Results are ranked by the total number of loops finished and the combined total time. The completed loops correspond to common distance milestones:
- 5K (1 loop)
- 10K (2 loops)
- Half Marathon (4 loops)
- Marathon (9 loops)
- 50K (10 loops)
In addition to the hourly loop format, there are separate continuous distance options available for 40 miles and 50 miles. Individual timing for each loop is tracked to allow runners to monitor their pacing and performance trends throughout the day. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
