Cliffs Of The Neuse Trail Run
Calculated from 50 km alone — the organiser has not published an elevation profile. Read 2.5 as a floor, not a verdict.
What the course asks
DUV results for the 2026 edition (50km) — finishers only. Starters are not published, so the field was at least this big and no finish rate can be given.
Typical conditions, March
Regional 2001-2020 average for March — NASA POWER, grid elevation 35 m. Not a forecast.

Course Notes
Small amount of gravel road but the 4ish mile loop will be mostly beautiful single and double track. The curvy trails include less stairs, significant elevation change, bridges, and views of the river and lake.
