The race

What this one is

The Rockledge Rumble Trail Run offers 50K, 30K and 15K events on the North Shore Trail along the shore of Lake Grapevine, just north of the DFW airport. The trail varies between soft dirt paths and more technical, rocky sections further from the start/finish. The race finishes along the bank of the lake until runners are forced up the steep, wooden staircase.

The Rockledge Rumble was founded in 1996 by Fred Holmes and Jay Norman, to raise funds for the U.S. team to attend and compete in the 100K World Championship. In 2016 Chris Barnwell acquired it along with the Grasslands Trail Run.

Anything else: [email protected]

Ultras change. We will tell you when this one does.

Cutoffs move, races get postponed, lotteries open and close. We read the race's own sources and record where every fact came from. Put your email in and we will send you what changed, and where we read it.

No account, and nothing to cancel.

What happens to your email. Nothing else. I do not sell it, and I will not send you anything except this race changing. One click gets you out.

I keep this catalog because the information is scattered and hard to trust. Telling you when it moves is the same job.
