2027 Run the Rock | Oliver Township

Race Information

Can you rock The Rock? Join a 3- or 6-mile run at Top of the Rock in Ridgedale, MO, where you will challenge your endurance and mental grit while experiencing exhilarating, scenic views you won't find anywhere else. The 6-mile course is one of the most challenging, rewarding runs you will ever complete. Best for experienced runners, this course was not designed to be someone’s first 6-mile run. While most of this course is asphalt, be prepared to run over several different surfaces, including but not limited to gravel, road, trail, wet rock, metal bridges, water, and dirt. While this course is hilly and challenging, participants will experience waterfalls, a cave, scenic overlooks, and absolutely beautiful surroundings. Spectators will have limited viewing options along the course. The best spots to cheer your runners are at the start and finish lines.
