Night Claw

Night Claw is a unique nighttime trail running event held at Dinosaur Valley State Park in Glen Rose, Texas. Participants can choose from various distances including 5K, 10K, and timed races of 4, 6, or 8 hours. The course features dirt and rocky single-track trails with a river crossing and a hilly terrain, offering about 650 feet of elevation gain on the 10K loop.

A special feature is the optional Claw Challenge, where runners are "hunted" on the trails by a designated "Claw" runner aiming to catch them by tearing their bib tag. Those who evade the Claw earn the title "ESCAPED." The event emphasizes a scenic, well-supported course with aid stations, no disposable cups, and a memorable night running experience through ancient landscapes.
