Firecracker Trek Longview

The Firecracker Trek Longview is a trail running event held in Longview, Texas, featuring 5K and 10K distances. The race takes place on the scenic Grace Creek Trailhead, known for its challenging single-track paths with mud, dirt, roots, and bridges. Participants experience slight elevation changes on each 5K loop through a forested area with flowing creeks.

The course is fully marked and supported, with aid stations providing hydration and snacks. Runners receive a commemorative tee shirt and awards are given for top finishers, including special categories like Old Timer and Dead Freakin' Last. The event promotes a friendly atmosphere and encourages participants to bring their own cups, as it is a cupless race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
