The Bluebonnet Trail Run takes place on March 28, 2027, at Turkey Bend Recreation Area on the shores of Lake Travis in Marble Falls, Texas. The event offers multiple trail distances that use the park's shoreline, wooded paths, and bluebonnet meadows.

  • 50-mile ultra
  • 50K
  • Marathon (26.2 miles)
  • Half marathon (13.1 miles)
  • 10K
  • 5K

Routes are described as varied terrain that highlights lake views, wooded sections, and fields of bluebonnets. Camping sites are available at the recreation area. The half marathon and the 10K are noted as recommended for experienced trail runners, while the 5K is described as suitable for recreational runners and fitness enthusiasts. All participants receive a finisher's medal.

The event is organized by Fit Foundation volunteers. Net proceeds, after event expenses, will be donated to Healthy Kids Running Series Cedar Park, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that operates fall and spring youth running programs. Those programs provide registration assistance, equipment support, and age‑appropriate running series for children. Because bluebonnet bloom and trail conditions depend on season and weather, routes may be adjusted to protect natural areas and respond to conditions.
