Holiday Victory Lap and Star of Texas 50K, Marathon, Half-Marathon, 10K, 5K

Holiday Victory Lap and Star of Texas 50K, Marathon, Half-Marathon, 10K, 5K takes place at Pace Bend Park in Spicewood, Texas, on December 13, 2026. The 50K (about 31 miles), the marathon (26.2 miles) and the half marathon (13.1 miles) start together at 9:30 a.m., with the 10K and 5K following at 10:00 a.m.

The event runs on a loop of smooth pavement with minimal elevation change, designed specifically to help runners chase a Boston qualifying time, and the repeated laps give you frequent splits to pace against. You can set up your own aid station on the loop and see your supporters several times per lap, which is a real advantage over the marathon and 50K distances. Professional timing, medals and commemorative coins await finishers.
