Run the River

Spicewood, TX
Fit Foundation Run the River (Texas Colorado River Running Series) 2027 Season · Every mile you run with us moves you downstream The Colorado runs from the Highland Lakes to Matagorda Bay, and every Fit Foundation race sits somewhere along it. Run the River tracks how far down that corridor your legs carry you across the season. Every mile counts, from the 5K up, at every race we put on. There is nothing to join and no separate entry fee. Enter a race and you are on the river. Everyone starts at zero January 1, 2027 The season closes December 31. Miles do not carry into 2028. The markers Marble Falls · 15 miles The first marker. A half marathon and a 5K will do it. So will a 25K, or four short races across the year. Pace Bend · 31 miles Downstream to Lake Travis. One 50K, or a marathon and a 10K, or a steady year of halves. Austin · 62 miles Where the river runs through town. Two 50Ks, or a 50 miler and a half. Bastrop · 155 miles Out of the lakes and into the lost pines. This is 250 kilometers, and it is the Rio Colorado 250K Club buckle, presented at the finish line the moment you cross it. Matagorda · 400 miles Where the Colorado meets the Gulf. This one is the Rio Colorado Ultra Slam, a season of its own with its own rules and a capped roster. How it works Enter any Fit Foundation race in 2027. That is all it takes to be on the river.Every finished mile is credited automatically. There is nothing to claim and no extra fee.Every distance counts, from the 5K up. Timed events count the distance you actually cover. Backyard ultras count 4.167 miles per yard completed.Reach a marker at any race and it is presented to you at that finish line. There is no ceremony and nothing gets mailed out. You have to be there.Markers are named for points on the river, not for where you collected them. You can earn Marble Falls at a race in Austin.The season runs January 1 to December 31, 2027. Miles do not carry into the following year.Want to know where you stand mid season? Ask us at any race, or reply to any email from us and we will tell you. One race puts you on the river. Every mile after that carries you downstream. The 2027 season opens January 1. Standings are updated after every race.

Whether you're chasing a new distance, beginning a healthier lifestyle, recovering from a difficult season, or you’re in the middle of one, we hope your reason for running connects with our reason for hosting.

New Year 5K, 10K, & 13.1M at Pflugerville, TX (02)

Pflugerville, TX
US Road Running Races US Road Running races are built for runners and walkers who like friendly, low-pressure race days with just enough competition to keep things exciting. Our events are local, welcoming, and easy to jump into, whether you are chasing a PR, collecting another themed medal, working toward series points, or just getting outside with good people. Most races are small enough to feel personal but organized enough to feel official. You can expect a clear course, helpful race staff, finisher medals, results, and a relaxed community feel. Bring your fast shoes, your steady walking pace, your favorite running buddy, or your best “I signed up for this on purpose” smile. We will be glad to see you at the start line. A quick race-day note: because many US Road Running events are small local races, we normally have one or two staff members at each race. EMS is not stationed on site, and water stations are limited to the finish area at the end of each lap and at the race finish. Please plan for the weather, bring anything you may want between laps, and check in with race staff if you need help. View Race Course, Results, and Race Information on the US Road Running race page.

The Lost Pines Endurance Fest is a brand-new multi-distance trail event set among the towering loblolly pines and shimmering lakeside views of Lake Bastrop. Whether you're chasing your first 5K finish, grinding through a full marathon, pushing into ultra territory on the 50K, testing your limits over eight hours of running, or loading up the ruck and grinding it out, there's a place for you at the start line. The course follows the scenic North-South Trailway, an out-and-back route that winds through one of Central Texas's most beautiful and resilient landscapes, the famous Lost Pines. Expect rolling terrain, packed-dirt singletrack, pine-needle-cushioned stretches, and glimpses of Lake Bastrop through the trees. It's runnable, it's gorgeous, and in January, the cool Central Texas air makes it just about perfect. We built this race for everyone. First-timer? Welcome. Ultra veteran? Let's go. Rucker with a loaded pack? We've got your division. This is a weekend to push your limits, support each other, and celebrate what your body can do. The Course North-South Trailway · Out & Back The North-South Trailway connects Lake Bastrop's South Shore and North Shore parks, curving and climbing gently through dense pine forest, past scenic lake overlooks, and across a series of bridges that span the park's creeks and inlets. The trail surface is a mix of packed dirt, sand, and rock with gentle rolling elevation changes, technical enough to feel like real trail running, forgiving enough to keep you moving. Toe Drain Crossing, one of the wooden bridges on course. Terrain Packed dirt, sand, rock, pine needles. Rolling hills. Well-marked and well-maintained. Scenery Towering loblolly pines, lake views, creek crossings, quiet forest. One of Texas's most unique ecosystems. January Mornings in the 40s to 50s°F. Afternoons 50s to 60s°F. Headlamps required after dark.

Bastrop's charming downtown is just minutes away for post-race food, drinks, and exploring.

You Belong Here The Lost Pines Endurance Fest was built from the ground up to be the kind of race where everyone feels at home. We want the first-timer to feel the same energy and support as the seasoned ultra runner. We want the rucker grinding under a loaded pack to get the same cheers as the 5K finisher crossing the line with a huge grin. This is a community event, and you're part of it the moment you sign up. Ruck weight rules for the event: • Men: 30 lbs minimum • Women: 20 lbs minimum A few important details regarding the weight: • These are minimum baselines (floors, not targets), so you are welcome to carry more if you want the extra challenge, but you cannot carry less. • Your ruck will be officially weighed and verified at check-in, and we do random spot checks throughout the event. • The weight must be carried inside a standard rucksack/backpack worn on your back (weighted vests do not qualify). • The pack must remain on your back for the entirety of the event, though you are welcome to take it off and set it down to rest during your break. The 8-hour timed event is perfect for runners who want to set their own pace and see how far they can go. Run as many out-and-back laps as you can within your time window. Walk when you need to. Sit at the aid station for a minute. Then get back out there. Every mile counts. Start Your Year on the Trail MLK Weekend. Lake Bastrop South Shore. Pine trees, lake views, and the kind of challenge that reminds you what you're capable of. We'll see you at the start line.

Houston, TX
Join in our annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day Run! Today, we gather to honor the legacy of Dr. King and his enduring commitment to justice, equality, and peace. Together, we can honor Dr. King’s dream and inspire one another to continue striving for a better world. Forget the massive, impersonal race-day crowds.

Whether it's a 5K, 10K, half-marathon, or virtual run, you'll get the warmth of a hometown event. Overview: Spots sell out FAST! We close each wave the moment it fills. Once a wave sells out, you can grab the virtual run option or join the waitlist.

Timing: Optional! Track your own time via Strava, RunKeeper, Nike Run, or similar, then submit it through our easy online form to get posted. Or just ask a coordinator to help time you.
