Wild Hare Trail Race
The Wild Hare Trail Race is held at Bluff Creek Ranch in Warda, Texas. The event offers multiple trail distances on a roughly 7.8 mile loop that combines rollercoaster-style singletrack, open fast field sections, and several climbs and descents over a bluff. Bathrooms and showers are available at the race hub.
Distances:
- 50 miles
- 50K
- 25K
- 10K
- Youth 1 mile
Race formats use repeated laps: the 50 mile distance includes a modified first lap of about 11 miles followed by five full laps; the 50K is four full loops; the 25K is two loops; the 10K is one shortened loop. The Midway Aid Station sits about 3.5 miles into each lap and the Start/Finish has a separate aid station next to the barn.
Course markings include orange caution tape, yellow directional arrows, and confidence markers with reflective materials for low light. The event is cupless; runners must bring their own cup or bottle. Collapsible cups are sold at packet pickup. Littering can lead to disqualification and organisers follow Leave No Trace practices.
Timing is chip based with chips worn on the ankle. Pacers are permitted under the event rules with mandatory registration. Camping, RV sites, and a small number of BnBs are available on site. The race awards top finishers and provides event shirts, unique medals, and aid station food options. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
