Rocky Raccoon 100
Huntsville, United States • 7-8 Feb 2026
Event details
The Rocky Raccoon 100, presented by Tejas Trails with USWE partnership, takes place at Huntsville State Park in Huntsville, Texas on February 7-8, 2026. The event has participant caps and organizers note the races often sell out and use a wait list. Races include the following distances:
- 100 miles
- 100 km
- Youth 1 mile
The event uses mass starts per distance. All races are chip timed with ankle chips that must be worn on the ankle. The 100 mile finish within 30 hours qualifies a runner to enter the Western States 100 lottery.
Course and support
The course is looped and marked for easy navigation. The 100 mile course is five 20-mile laps. The 100 km format begins with a short lap then three full 20-mile laps. Each full lap has roughly 1,250 ft of climb and equal descent. Trails are on a bed of pine needles, cross wooden bridges, and pass through tall East Texas pines; the surface is not rocky but has exposed tree roots.
Organizers provide extensive course markings, reflective markers for night, and full aid station support with hot and cold options. Drop bags and crew access are possible at multiple aid stations; some aid stations have special delivery rules. Cutoff times are set for the last lap and for final course closure on Sunday. Volunteers staff aid stations and other race roles. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
