Overview
Welcome to our nighttime party trail run just West of Houston at Stephen F. Austin State Park! The trails offer wide paths mainly composed of gravel and dirt, with a few quick elevation changes, making it an ideal trail run for participants ranging from beginners to advanced. As mandatory equipment, all runners will need both a light and a hydration device. The trail will be clearly marked with reflectors and ribbons. Please note that we are a cupless race, so it’s essential to carry your own bottle or flask for hydration. Parking instructions advise following park guidelines and parking along the right side of the park road, starting at the group dining hall event area and filling back from there. The group dining hall serves as the focal point of all activities, including packet pickup, start/finish line, a designated area for runners, and a spectator hang-out lawn. Additionally, it houses our main aid station. A second water refill will be available at the halfway point near the road crossing. We encourage participants to bring extra lights and costumes to add to the festive atmosphere! Sunset is at 7:30 PM, setting the stage for an unforgettable nighttime trail running experience.

The loop is the same for all events, starting with the red loop followed by the blue loop for just over 5km total. Slight adjustments may be made for accurate distances. The course will have both flags and reflective markings (be sure to have your own light). Signage will be posted for any additional information.
​You do not come through the aid station after finishing the blue loop, however there is a water refill (unmanned) at around halfway, at the road crossing.
​At the end of the blue loop you climb the staircase and follow the course around the dining hall to complete your lap before the aid station. If you are done you collect your medal, otherwise, head back out to repeat the course for your next lap once you are ready.
​Note that the Marathon and Half Marathon will complete the green add-on trail (Barred Owl Trail) for the first two loops of the marathon, and only the first loop of the half marathon.
