Dana Peak Trail Run

Dana Peak Trail Run takes place at Dana Peak Park on the north shore of Stillhouse Hollow Lake in Texas, about an hour from Waco and Austin. The event offers four distances—10K, 20K, 50K, and 100K—each on a single loop through rocky, wooded terrain with lake views as runners climb peaks along the shore. Elevation gains are substantial: about 3,354 feet for the 50K and roughly 6,708 feet for the 100K.

Runners must carry a hydration device; aid stations are 3–5 miles apart, with a 7-mile longest segment. The race is cupless, includes drop bags, camping, pacers for the 100K, and awards for top finishers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
