La Nuit
La Nuit is a night trail run held at Cedar Ridge Preserve in Dallas on July 24-25, 2026. The event offers looped trail races and shorter distance runs that use the same trail circuit repeated through the night. All proceeds benefit Equip Disciples, a 501(c)(3) organization, and support Cedar Ridge Preserve.
Distances and race formats:
- 9 hours
- 9 Hour Relay (three person teams)
- 6 hours
- 3 hours

The event course follows a loop of about 3.2 miles that passes forested sections, a pond and some grassland. Trails include rock and wood steps, and surfaces of rock, mulch, dirt and small gravel. Routes are marked with reflective signs and ropes. The hour races are scored by number of completed loops and overall time; relays alternate runners each loop.
There is a main aid station at the start/finish area with water, Gatorade and a variety of snacks and some hot food through the night, plus a smaller water table at the halfway point. Packet pick up is available at The Runner in Arlington on July 22 and 23 and will also be available at the event. Runners must follow preserve rules, stay on marked trails and observe a cupless policy by bringing their own cup or bottle. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
