The Problem
Trail Races Aren't Generic Events
Remote venues, capacity caps, mandatory gear, lottery systems — platforms built for city 5Ks don't cut it.
Capacity-Limited Events Need Reliable Waitlist Management
Permit caps, trailhead parking, and land-use restrictions mean you can't sell unlimited entries. When your 200-person ultra fills in 3 minutes, you need a waitlist system that actually works — not a spreadsheet and a prayer.
Remote Venues Require Detailed Course & Safety Info
Your start line is 40 miles from the nearest hospital. Runners need elevation profiles, aid station locations, mandatory gear lists, and emergency protocols before they even register — and they need to acknowledge them.
Permit & Land-Use Requirements Add Complexity
BLM permits, Forest Service agreements, state park regulations, wildlife corridor restrictions — each adds layers of compliance. Standard registration platforms have no idea what a land-use permit even is.
Standard Platforms Don't Understand Trail & Ultra Needs
Lottery entries, qualifying standards, mandatory gear checks, crew/pacer registration, cutoff times, drop bag logistics — generic ticketing tools weren't built for any of this. You deserve a platform that speaks trail.
Trail Race Tools
Everything Trail Races Need
Registration, logistics, and safety management — purpose-built for trail and ultra running events.
Capacity Management & Waitlists
Set hard caps per race distance. Automatic waitlist management with position tracking, notification emails, and one-click acceptance when spots open.
Trail Map & Elevation Profiles
Upload GPX files and display interactive course maps with elevation gain, technical sections, and aid station markers directly on your registration page.
Mandatory Gear Checklists
Define required gear per distance. Runners acknowledge each item during registration. Export lists for gear check volunteers on race morning.
Aid Station & Drop Bag Management
List aid station locations with mileage, available supplies, crew access points, and drop bag logistics. Runners select drop bag stations during signup.
Lottery & Qualifying Systems
Run weighted lotteries with ticket years, volunteer credits, and legacy entries. Verify qualifying races and times automatically during registration.
Digital Waivers & Medical Forms
Legally binding e-signatures, emergency contact collection, medical history forms, and insurance verification — all built into the registration flow.
Crew & Pacer Registration
Separate registration for pacers and crew with their own waivers, vehicle permits, and access point assignments. Link directly to the runner they support.
Cutoff Time Management
Display cutoff times per aid station. Communicate time limits clearly during registration so runners understand the challenge before they commit.

Race Director Stories
Trusted by Trail Race Directors
“Managing a 200-person ultra with a waitlist of 600 was a nightmare before EnduranceFinder. Now lottery entries, qualifying checks, and waitlist management all happen automatically. I focus on course marking instead of spreadsheets.”
