Returning on March 28, 2026, the Chubb Trail Races—also known as the Double Chubb—invite ultrarunners and trail enthusiasts to the rocky and rolling paths of West Tyson County Park near St. Louis. Participants can choose from 50K, 25K, or 8-mile distances on an out-and-back course that includes steep hill climbs, wooded singletrack, and fast descents, with no water crossings (though route reroutes may occur in the case of flooding). The race offers chip timing, aid stations stocked with trail fuel, a generous 9-hour cutoff, and a low-key, supportive trail-running culture. The event is cup-free, so runners must bring their own hydration gear, and proceeds go toward local trail maintenance and community initiatives. Packet pickup is available the day before, and the race consistently sells out due to its cult status in the Midwest trail-running scene.
