Sam's Last Stand

Just north of Houston, the longest trail in Texas winds its way through Sam Houston National Forest. The 96-mile Lone Star Hiking Trail may only be explored on foot, so why not run it!

Sam's Last Stand will be a fatass-style race across the entire LSHT. Starting at Trailhead 1 on the western terminus of the trail, 25 runners will have 36 hours to reach Trailhead 15 near Cleveland. Just 96 beautiful miles of towering pines and magnolias, trickling creeks and curious local wildlife.

We will provide minimal water along the course and allow drop bags.

The rest is up to you.
