If you haven’t been to Hutto, it’s time! Welcome to the home of the hippos. We have partnered with the Hippo Social Club and Patriot Sports & Fitness to bring to you the Hippo Trail Fest! They are welcoming us into their fitness and well-being facility, at the edge of their beautiful, wooded, rolling trail system in their backyard. You can expect a lot of extra fun surrounding this trail party! There will be activities, food, drinks, and fun going on around the race hub all morning and afternoon. The Hippo Social Club will also have their amenities open to all racers and spectators, including mobility and stretching resources, cold plunge pools, sauna, along with the rest of the great post-race action.
We will have trail runs of multiple distances, two ruck race distances to choose from, an almost free youth race, and the infamous Hippo Haul (a 5km weight carry foot race).
ROUTE DETAILS:
These trails are soft and flowy, and almost entirely shaded. The trails roll all around little creek beds under the canopy of the forrest. There isn’t a lot of elevation change, but there are some tight turns. It’s a great 6.5 mile loop that will keep seasoned trail runners entertained, while providing a great experience for those new to the trails!
