EXCLAMATION 5.0
EXCLAMATION 5.0 is a timed endurance event held in Farmersville, Texas on June 5, 2027. The course is laid out to form a literal exclamation mark: the dot is the start/finish area and each 5-mile out-and-back section is called an "EXCLAMATION." An EXCLAMATION is completed within a set time window and a new EXCLAMATION begins each hour; attempts continue until a single runner remains.
Distances
- 5 mile EXCLAMATION (one out-and-back)
- 25 mile (five EXCLAMATIONS)
Aid stations provide limited items such as water, soda, electrolyte product, chips, candy, and fruit; runners are advised to carry primary fuel and hydration. No aid is allowed during an EXCLAMATION. Restrooms are available at the start/finish. The trail is a live public route with cross traffic; runners should keep to the right and call to pass. Leave no trace.
Crew, pacers, pets, and family are permitted under event rules; crew and pacers follow the same race rules and may not provide assistance during an EXCLAMATION attempt except at the start/finish. Quiet hours are observed overnight.
Parking is available in public lots behind City Hall and along Farmersville Parkway. Church parking and the lot adjacent to the Onion Shed are restricted. Vehicle owners are responsible for their property and must follow posted signage and staff directions.
Awards recognize last runner standing, fastest EXCLAMATION, and top performers in youth and masters age groups. Minors require parental consent on a liability waiver. The event proceeds in rain or shine except during thunder or lightning. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
