Medal Madness 5K, 10K, & 13.1M, Bettendorf, IA (03)

Bettendorf, IA
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.

LOST PINES ENDURANCE FEST Lake Bastrop · Bastrop, Texas 5K • 10K • 10-MILE • HALF MARATHON • 25K • MARATHON • 50K • 50M • 100K • 100M • 250K • RUCK Your New January Tradition Starts Here Kick off the new year on the trails. 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. Choose Your Challenge Something for every runner, every goal, every pace. ▲ Saturday 5K TRAIL 5K 13.1M HALF MARATHON 26.2M MARATHON 50K, 50MI, 100K TRAIL ULTRA 100MI, 250K, ULTRA ENDURANCE ▲ Sunday 10K TRAIL 10K 10MI TRAIL 10-MILER 25K TRAIL 25K ▲ Ruck Division 5K RUCK (SATURDAY) 10K RUCK (SUNDAY) 13.1 HALF MARATHON RUCK (SATURDAY) The Weekend Two days in the Lost Pines. Make a weekend out of it. MLK Weekend means a long weekend for many, perfect for making a trip out of it. Lake Bastrop South Shore Park has cabins, RV hookups, and tent camping right in the park, so you can wake up steps from the start line. Bastrop's charming downtown is just minutes away for post-race food, drinks, and exploring. Saturday Race Day One ▸ 5K, Half Marathon & Marathon ▸ 50K, 50M, 100K, 100M, 250K Trail Ultras ▸ 5K Ruck & Half Marathon Ruck ▸ Full aid station support Sunday Race Day Two ▸ 10K Trail Run ▸ 10-Mile Trail Run ▸ 25K Trail Run ▸ 10K Ruck ▸ Awards ceremony First 5K or Fiftieth Ultra? 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.

MLK Jr. Freedom Run 5K/10K/13.1 SAN ANTONIO

San Antonio, 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. We keep things small, personal, and local, so every run feels less like a number and more like a memory. 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. This is a smaller, private group run with a capped field per wave so it never feels crowded and you're never just a bib number. All paces and ages welcome (under 18 with a guardian) - run it, walk it, however you like! There's no gear, no setup, no fuss - just you, the course, and our coordinators cheering you on in a relaxed, stress-free setting. When you sign up, you're not just registering for a race - you're getting real support toward your fitness goals, plus an invite to join one of our local run clubs to keep the momentum going. 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. No timing chips - this is about progress, not pressure. What You Get (Swag Bag): - Running T-shirt (shipped to your address - U.S. only) - Finisher's medal - Virtual Training Run (emailed to you a month before your run) - Online results & certificate of completion - Invitation to join a local running club - NEW: Upgrade to a lightweight, moisture-wicking technical shirt for just $5 more Packet Pickup?
