The Next Loop Endurance Series - Indian Camp Creek
The Next Loop Endurance Series at Indian Camp Creek in Foristell, Missouri, is a loop-based trail running event held on August 1, 2026. The event takes place at 2679 Dietrich Rd and uses a 3.1 mile (5K) loop on trail terrain.
Participants begin a new loop each hour. After finishing a loop, each runner decides whether to start another loop or stop; there are no penalties and no DNFs for stopping. Every completed loop is recorded and counts toward the athlete's result.
Timing is recorded for each loop individually. The overall result is the combined time of all completed loops, so rankings reflect loops completed and total time across those loops. The event uses this per-loop timing to track pacing and consistency.
The format is presented for a range of athletes including new 5K and 10K participants, marathon and ultra runners, and hybrid or functional athletes who want to measure recovery and consistency. The course is described as scenic and clearly marked, with a central base area at the start/finish. An aid station is available each hour and the environment is family- and crew-friendly.
