The Course
​
Home to immaculate trails, fun murals, and gorgeous skylines, Fort Worth’s Trinity Park is the perfect backdrop for our no frills urban race series – El Frio 50 & El Fuego 50. This fast, flat, looped course showcases amazing skyline views, winds along the river, takes you through beautiful oak trees, and across paved and gravel trail. You’ll enjoy the illuminated downtown view through your 3.1 mile loop, while experiencing camaraderie with those you’ll be running with through the night. Don’t miss out on this chance to score an interlocking medal by completing both races!
