Organiser's description

Unfortunately due to schedule conflicts, this race has been cancelled for this year. All registered runners will be contacted for next steps.

Previously known as the J&J, this trail racing event of the year is now on Labor Day weekend; and is our pinnacle of off road racing and fun. Held at the adventure capital of Texas, Camp Eagle, only a couple hours from San Antonio, a few hours from Austin, and well worth a longer drive or flight from anywhere, this event is where a huge chunk of Tejas Trails history took place and is very special to all of us who have raced here. Now we are taking it to a whole new level. This 3 day festival will include trail running races, rucking races, mountain bike races, biathlon races, and a handful of extra fun contests in the water and the sky, which will result in this being one of the biggest trail sports bashes of the year.

Runners and Riders will be enjoying the amazing technical trails and beautiful vistas. Friends and family will be able to enjoy waiting for their racer while relaxing in the amenities, coffee shop, private lodging, dining hall; playing in the spring-fed river; and enjoying the adventure activities around the 1400 acres of fun.

_WHILE EVERY RACER WILL GET SOME COOL SWAG OR RACE SHIRT. IF YOU REGISTER AFTER THE SHIRT DEADLINE, YOU WILL GET SOME COOL RACE SWAG! THIS COULD BE A VARIETY OF ITEMS LIKE A TRUCKER CAP, NECK GAITER, ETC. IT WILL BE A COOL SWAG ITEM!_
