Wild Hare Trail Run
Nov 21 – 5am
50mi / 50km / 25km / 10km
Warda, Texas

Welcome to the 6th annual Wild Hare endurance run. As the name implies, a FAST frolic on a course of constantly changing terrain. It's a short 8mi loop, part of which is a mountain bike style rollercoaster of twists & turns with shallow dips and 180 degree turns, another part open field which is fast and easy, and also a few climbs/descents over the bluff. With each distance starting an hour apart, it all merges quickly into one big party. Bathrooms and showers right at the start, the coolest Wild Hare medals, unique awards, chip timing, tech Ts and lots of camaraderie, where everyone gets to see everyone else.

Run, walk, bike, skate board or fly, it all makes the day better! Bring the whole family for a day of endurance. We will be running on the Spring Creek Greenway in Spring,Texas.. It's a beautiful 12 mile paved pathway (some trails available to run also) through the woods along the Spring Creek. It connects Dennis Johnston Park- John Pundt Park- Jesse Jones Park. Water is available about every 2-3 miles and there are full restroom facilities at each park. We are starting at John Pundt Park with the cooperation of the Harris County Parks and the gates will be opened at 5am and closed at 8pm. There is plenty of parking available and a covered pavilion to have a place for drop bags. Bring your own food and hydration. We are also looking for volunteers to be at the pavilion to monitor the sign in/out logs, the mileage log for those interested and watch the drop bags.
