Bluebonnet Trail Run
The Bluebonnet Trail Run takes place at Turkey Bend Recreation Area in Marble Falls, TX on March 27–28, 2027. The event is organized by Fit Foundation in partnership with FitWorks and includes a range of trail events across the park and along Lake Travis shorelines. Routes pass lake views, wooded paths, and bluebonnet meadows. Camping is available at the recreation area. Trail routes may be adjusted for weather or to protect natural areas, and the event is timed to coincide with peak bluebonnet bloom.
Distances and formats include:
- 50 miles
- 50K
- Marathon (26.2 miles)
- Half Marathon (13.1 miles)
- Half-Marathon Ruck
- 10K
- 5K
- Last One Standing Gauntlet
The Half-Marathon Ruck uses the same course as the half marathon but requires a loaded pack. Minimum dry pack weight is 20 lb for participants under 150 lb, and 30 lb for participants 150 lb or over. Ruckers weigh in before the start, packs must remain secured and be carried without assist, water does not count toward the minimum, and weight is checked again at the finish. Ruckers are scored separately from runners.
The Last One Standing Gauntlet is an eliminator format of repeated loops that increase in distance and impose hourly pace requirements; the course and schedule change as the event progresses. Optional donations benefit FitWorks programs that support adaptive athletes. All participants receive a unique finisher medal. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
