Churn and Burn Running

A trail running community based out of Stillwater Oklahoma

Who We Are

We are a trail running group based out of Stillwater, Oklahoma. We are not just weekend warriors and not just runners. We run, host, and follow the Ultra-marathon community. We find every reason to hit new trails, and just be outdoors. Our goal is simple; provide quality races and content describing the dirtiest and most soul crushing times.

Be Outside. Be Epic.
