Description:

Come run one of the most scenic, rugged mountain ranges in Texas. Ever needed an excuse to attend the McDonald Observatory star party, visit Marfa, and take a dip in Balmorea Springs? Now is your chance to pair all of that up with a 50k or 25k in The Davis Mountains! Imagine running a dozen switchbacks to get you up to a ridge, then blazing along a rim with 360 views, and flying down a long, slow descent. These trails are technical and prove to be quite the challenge. We will have a memorable party at the finish line, like Spectrum Trail Races always do!
