YoungLife Run & Relay - April 11, 2026
The YoungLife Run & Relay is a charity endurance event in Longview, Texas that uses the Mobberly Baptist Church MTB Trails and the Williams Lake loop. The event offers trail distances on shaded, switchback routes and directs all profits to Greater Longview YoungLife, a Christian organization that builds relationships with young people so they can hear about Jesus.
The course uses wide dirt single track trails with some roots, ditches, bridges, grass and gravel around a lake. The route is described as relatively flat and takes place near the Williams Lake Pavilion at 3297 Tryon Rd. Aid stations provide food and hydration, the course is fully marked and supported, and photography is provided. The event does not provide disposable cups so participants should bring a personal water-carrying system.
