The North Face® Endurance Challenge returns to Algonkian Regional Park, Great Falls Park and the Potomac Heritage Trail again in 2010. The course keeps runners on their toes with ever-changing terrain. Overall, it consists of 50% singletrack, 30% dirt or gravel doubletrack, 10% gravel carriage road and 10% paved road.

The Great Falls sections are highlighted by some intense elevation changes, with steep-but-run-able climbs up to 300 feet. The River Trail covers what is widely held as the marquee section the event: up to three miles of tip-toeing and hopping along bluffs high above the Potomac River. The tedious-but-scenic time it takes to cover this section is more than offset by cruising sections of undulating trail in the river basin.

    Great event. Almost had to stop at mile 18 but I was able to pull it together and finish.

    I think I might get shots to calm the nerves on my feet before I run, its going to be super slow with some walking in between:) You were right yesterday when you said I was being lazy haha. Hope this works out!

    Kathy, are you crazy? You can't run a marathon in 2 weeks! Maybe run the Zooma Half with us instead? Don't get yourself injured again!
