About the Event

Embrace the ultimate winter challenge on Nebraska's frozen plains at Winter Endurance, presented by Lauf Gravel Worlds in Lincoln, Nebraska, on Saturday, 21st February 2026. This truly self-supported adventure offers a gritty test of resilience with a 100k, 50k, or 25k gravel bike race and a 10k winter run, all on raw, snow-covered rural roads where the only checkpoint is a remote gas station. Inspired by Shackleton's legendary Antarctic expedition, this event strips away all comforts—no aid stations, no course support—demanding thorough preparation and sheer mental fortitude against average highs of just 41°F. With its unique "lotto ticket" proof-of-passage, post-race camaraderie at the Sandhills Global Event Center, and an ethos forged in the harshest conditions, it's far more than a race; it's a rite of passage for the gravel family. Register now for an unforgettable battle against the elements where survival is the only victory that matters.
