3 Chaparrals Endurance Trail Run

The 3 Chaparrals 3/6 Hour Endurance Trail Run is an inaugural timed trail running event held at Palo Duro Canyon State Park in Canyon, Texas. Participants choose between 3-hour or 6-hour durations, including a 6-hour 3-person relay option, aiming to complete as many 4-mile loops on the technical Kiowa/Comanche Loop course as possible. The race starts at the Mack Dick Pavilion, with a single aid station offering water, performance drinks, snacks, and more.

This cupless race requires runners to bring their own hydration. Strict lap completion rules and cutoffs ensure fair competition. Registration opens in mid-2025, with a discount offered for a related Palo Duro Trail Run event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
