Palo Duro Trail Run

The Palo Duro Trail Run, celebrating its 39th edition on October 19, 2024, is a premier trail running event held in Palo Duro Canyon, Texas. Participants can choose from three distances: 25K, 50K, and 50 miles, navigating a diverse course that includes rolling singletrack, sand, and rocky terrain, with technical ascents and descents. The event features aid stations stocked with snacks and drinks, including the popular "Date Nut Bars." This year introduces a reverse direction for the race, and participants are required to carry their own hydration systems as it is a cupless race.

Awards are given to top finishers, and post-race burgers are provided. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
