About This Event
Oklahoma's oldest trail run has been drawing runners to the shores of Lake McMurtry since 1999, when founder Earl Blewett recognized the area's potential as a premier trail running destination. Now in its third era of management under the Outlaw race group, this multi-distance event maintains its reputation for beginner-friendly terrain while showcasing some of Oklahoma's most scenic lakeside trails. The race offers an inclusive range of distances from 5K to 50K, with traditional and ruck divisions available across all options. This variety makes it particularly appealing to running groups and families looking to share a race weekend together. The course winds through soft, rolling trails that provide spectacular lake views without punishing technicality, earning its status as an ideal introduction to trail running for road converts. While the terrain may be forgiving, the distance options and well-established aid stations create genuine challenge for runners seeking longer efforts. The race's longevity speaks to its consistent organization and the enduring appeal of the Lake McMurtry trail system, which has maintained its reputation among Oklahoma's trail running community for over two decades.
