Goatz Trail Runs

G.O.A.T.z Trail Runs

G.O.A.T.z Trail Runs is a trail running event held at Glenn Cunningham Lake in northwest Omaha, Nebraska. Races start and finish by the marina and boat ramp at Entrance 1 of the park. The course surface is almost entirely trail and grass and uses one or more looped laps around the lake.

Distances offered include:

• 50 mile 5 laps
• 50K 3 laps
• 21 mile 2 laps
• 10.5 mile 1 lap
• 5 mile 1 shortened lap

The event date is Sunday, October 18, 2026. Registration is open with a total field cap of 500 runners. Current 2026 fees are listed by distance and increase after August 31 for most distances.

There will be two fully stocked aid stations per loop: one at the Start/Finish and one near the halfway point. Runners must carry a hydration device. Aid station offerings include water, electrolyte drink, soda options, fruit, salty and sweet snacks, and real food. Drop bags and personal items may be left near the main aid station. Spectators are welcome at the Start/Finish by the marina, but not at the secondary aid station due to safety and parking limits.

Proceeds support the general GOATz fund for trail maintenance, community projects, and support for cross country teams. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
