The DeClue Loops Trail Race takes place annually at Greensfelder Park in Wildwood, Missouri, on the DeClue Trail during October. Runners can choose their distance: one loop covers approximately 8 miles, two loops total 16 miles, a marathon distance follows three-plus loops, and four loops complete the 50K. The loop measures about 8.2 miles, beginning and ending near the park's Visitor's Center. Participants travel clockwise on each circuit. This format accommodates newer trail runners seeking a single circuit and seasoned runners desiring a longer challenge on Missouri's natural terrain of dirt, hills, and wooded parkland. Awards are presented to top finishers, and St. Louis Track Club members receive a registration discount using the email associated with their membership.

Organizator to Benton High School i oferują dystanse: 100 miles, 50 miles, 50K, maraton i półmaraton. Trasa to 25-milowa pętla, którą biegnie się counter-clockwise.

Maratończycy zawracają po 0.6 miles na dodatkowym odcinku, a półmaratończycy biegną 6.55 miles w jedną stronę, zanim wrócą.

The St. Louis Track Club Marathon Relay is a marathon-distance relay held in Tower Grove Park, typically in November. Rather than a point-to-point course, it divides the 26.2 miles into repeated laps of approximately 3.2 miles on the park's east side. Runners can compete solo, as a pair, in a four-person group, or with a larger team of five to eight, accommodating marathoners, friends, families, and co-workers sharing the distance. The loop follows a horseshoe shape, with the start and finish lines situated near the Sons of Rest Pavilion. Teammates take turns running laps, and each team member must complete at least one. This course design simplifies spectating, allowing supporters to view runners at the start area and again near the midpoint of each loop. Teams frequently establish a base camp with tents and chairs, contributing to a park gathering atmosphere rather than a typical road marathon.

St. Louis Marathon Relay odbywa się co roku w Tower Grove Parku. Start o 9:00 rano czasu Centralnego, a limit czasu to 6 godzin. Można zrobić cały marathon solo, w dwójkę, w czwórkę, albo zebrać ekipę na Party Pack (5-8 osób) – to dla tych, co wolą krótsze odcinki i bardziej na luzie, bez spiny na wynik. Format zawodów jest taki, że pasuje zarówno dla tych, co cisną solo na wynik, jak i dla standardowych relay teams, klubowiczów czy znajomych – wszyscy biegną po tej samej trasie marathonu, ale każdy ma swoje cele. W Party Packu może być maksymalnie osiem osób, więc na osobę wychodzi średnio około 5K. Klubowicze St. Louis Track Club mają niewielką zniżkę na wpisowe we wszystkich kategoriach. To jest wieloletnia tradycja St. Louis Track Club, a nie jakaś tam jednorazowa akcja, a Tower Grove Park to od lat ta sama, dobrze znana miejscówka na cały dzień.

The weekend also features the National Running Club Championships & Rally, concluding with live music and local food at the after-party.
