The Skyline Scramble - Topeka, KS

The Skyline Scramble is a trail endurance event held on March 6, 2027 in Topeka, Kansas. The event uses a rugged single-loop course of 2.15 miles that winds through the wooded south summit of Skyline Park and reaches the highest point on Burnett’s Mound. Each loop has about 250 feet of elevation gain and includes rocks, roots, and boardwalks.

Race formats offered:

• 12 Hour race
• 12 Hour Team Relay
• 6 Hour race
• 3 Hour race
• 2 Mile Kids Race

The 3-hour, 6-hour, and 12-hour formats require participants to run the same loop repeatedly within a fixed time window and rank competitors by the number of complete loops. The 12 Hour Team Relay is for three-person teams that share a single bib and must have each team member complete at least one loop to score.

The kids race is for grades K through 8, split into elementary and middle school divisions, and consists of one full 2.15-mile loop. Parents or guardians may run with their child, and a parent or guardian must sign the release waiver in person at packet pickup to receive the child’s bib.

Additional event details include online registration closing March 4, 2027, early packet pickup at a local Fleet Feet store, designated drop bag and crew areas at the start and finish, parking arranged by race division, and specific rules about course conduct, age minimums, and disqualification for cutting or littering.
