Inks Lake & Pedernales Falls & Mule Shoe
60km / 30km / 10km (All 3 distances at all 3 races)
Three Trail races in the spectacular Texas Hill Country west of Austin. A series of summer TRAIL races. A 60km & 30km during the night to avoid the worst part of the summer heat, and a 10km earlier in the day. All events start on Saturday. 10km in the morning, 60km/30km in the evening. 60km/30km will be chip timed. Awards to the top 5 overall, and top 3 masters (male & female). Buckles to those who complete all three 60km and medals to every finisher. Tech T's to all who registered before late cutoff. Sorry, but we did not order extra shirts, so we dont have any extra for those who registered late.

Camping is suggested for each event. The running party starts at 8:00 AM on Saturday for the 10km, then settles into a lazy day at the park for half a day til the 60km/30km start at 7:00 PM. Then continues all night til the last runner comes in, or the final cutoff at 7:00 AM. Especially at Mule Shoe Bend more than all the others. You can pitch your tent right at the start line and spend the weekend. bring lawn-chairs and beer coolers. I'll set up a family of tents to hang out under for the duration.

10km Course: The LOOP is a single 10km loop. From start to the Front Gate aid station, then down the road to the Crumley Road aid station, then continue the big loop to the finish.

The 30km Course: Two 9.09mi loops plus 0.42mi to be added on with a short out n back from the start.

The 60km Course: Four 9.09mi loops plus 0.84mi to be added on with a short out n back from the start.

50mi Option: No need to sign up, there are no awards... BUT, for those who are fast enough... and want to bag a 50 miler, sign up for the 60km, run the 60km, and then keep going. The same 12hr cutoff remains. This will be an official 50mi finish on a measured 50mi course. For this course, to bag the 50mi, you will need to run 2 more loops. One full loop and then one partial at 3.71mi.

Aid Stations: Front Gate Aid is at 2.99mi. The Crumley Road Aid is another 3.55mi. The Finish Aid is another 2.55mi.

Awards will NOT be mailed out. If you win, pick it up, or have a friend pick it up. Now that we are at the final race f the series, all of you who are eligible for awards, need to make sure you ask about them and pick them up before you leave. I'm talking about ALL the 60km Buckles and also the top 5 series finishers for those who ran all 3 races of the same distance.

REGISTRATION: Online registration is OFF. You can still register at the race site on the day of the race.
