About Wild Hare Trail Race
Saturday, November 14, 2026.
Wild Hare has turned into one of our most fun trail races of all Tejas Trails events. With the safety and beauty of a privately owned Texas ranch and adventure park, and multiple really fun loops, new runners get a feel for trail running, and experienced runners get an opportunity to try new strategies, fueling, diet, etc. as well as hammer out a fast and fun race. Always a good turnout, usually nice weather, an entertaining course, hundreds of people hanging out all day and night... this is an absolutely fantastic trail race weekend with a bunch of good memories waiting to be made.
While every racer will get some cool swag, Oct. 20 is the deadline to get a shirt.
