DFW Burning Soles Trail Series Race 3

THE HOTTEST RACING IN TOWN IS BRINGING A NEW HEAT TO THE DFW METROPLEX WITH THE BURNING SOLES TRAIL SERIES.

Beginning this June and running through August, compete in a 5k or 10k series over 8 weeks this summer. Alternating trails between Northshore Trail in Flower Mound and Erwin Park in McKinney keep things fresh week to week.

Trails will be well marked, with lively and exciting finish line atmosphere. Featuring some of the best singletrack trails in North Texas.

Races will be chip timed for all participants. When you arrive for your first race you will be assigned and given a runners bib for the series. Bring that bib back with you each time you race.

Race distances of 5k and 10k are approximate based on trail conditions and course. Recorded distances may be below or above advertised distance.

DFW Series provides local, accessible and family friendly trail races focused on community building and volunteer efforts. Our Dallas area trails are all on municipal or federal property and maintained thanks to the tireless efforts of 501(c)(3) non-profit Dallas Off-Road Bicycle Association (DORBA). If you are a frequent trail user, please consider getting an annual DORBA membership for only $40 per year. All funding to DORBA goes towards trail maintenance and advocacy in our area, supporting 28 trails and 265+ miles of singletrack.
