Three distances. One community. Endless possibilities for chaos!

Whether you’re chasing a new distance, testing your limits, or just looking for your next adventure with an incredible group of people, Total Chaos is coming to bring the fun.

This one is going to be exactly what the name promises… TOTAL CHAOS!

But this isn’t your typical timed event. Throughout the race, you’ll have the chance to step away from the suffering and have a little fun! We’ll bring the 90s back with 90s trivia, classic game-themed challenges, designated time slots, costumes, crew station competitions, and plenty of surprises. Each win results in a prize



Every 2 hours, the course direction will change, keeping you on your toes and adding a whole new level of strategy to the race.



And I’m saving the best for last…



MANIA HOUR!



During Mania Hour, the person who logs the most miles in that hour will take home a custom prize. We’ll have multiple opportunities throughout the event to compete, and at the end, the person who racks up the most overall wins will take home the ultimate prize!



You don’t always have to suffer when you’re racing. Sometimes, you can laugh, play, compete, and have a damn good time while you’re at it.



We’re bringing the 90s back in 2027!

And remember, at Beast Trail Racing, you’re never just a participant. YOU’RE FAMILY!

West Monroe, we hope you’re ready. The Beast Train is building momentum, and this is only the beginning!

TOTAL CHAOS — LET YOUR INNER BEAST WILD

Course

The Lazarre Park Trails head along the Ouachita River through a mostly flat setting of grass, trees, and river-bottom habitat. The paved loop shares some sections with park roads, while the surrounding 90-plus acres include a boat ramp, kayak launch, fishing areas, and disc golf. Great blue herons, egrets, hawks, and other birds are well suited to the river and nearby bottomland, while squirrels and other small animals use the wooded edges. The park is also part of the Ouachita River paddling network.

Each loop is 19ft gained.
