The Lost Pines 5K • 10-Mile • Half Marathon • Full Marathon • 6HR • 12HR • 24HR • Ruck runs in Bastrop, Texas, on January 16 and 17, 2027. The 24-hour and 12-hour challenges start at 7:00 AM on the Saturday, the 6-hour run at 9:00 AM, and the marathon (26.2 miles), half marathon (13.1 miles) and 5K all go at 10:00 AM; the 10-Miler (16.1 km) closes things out at 7:00 AM on the Sunday. The event is held around the Lake Bastrop parks, on the North-South Trailway among tall loblolly pines, and the Ruck category requires carrying a pack of a set minimum weight.

With eight formats, the choice is really about how you like to suffer. Fixed distances suit a target time; the timed challenges suit anyone who would rather measure a day by hours on their feet. For the longer options, rehearse your fueling and plan your walk breaks before race morning.
