Multi-Race Challenges
We have several challenges that require finishing multiple races, each providing you a unique and life-altering experience by pushing yourself beyond what you may have thought possible. The finisher lists of these challenges are short, as the challenges are only for the toughest among our crowd. The combination of races varies from challenge to challenge (and sometimes year to year).

Complete as many Tejas Trails races as you can during the 2026 calendar year to earn points and compete for a Garmin watch, free race entries, and Tejas Trails prizes.
You must obtain an official finish at each event for it to count (finish before cut-off, etc.)
The Garmin Challenge is scored using a simple points system based on race distance. Points are earned for every Tejas Trails race completed during the 2026 calendar year. The runner with the highest total point score at the end of the season wins.

How Points Are Earned
Points are awarded per race completed based on race length:
Under 5 miles — 1 point
5 to 10 miles — 2 points

This system rewards consistency across the year while still recognizing longer distances.
