Tejas Trails is still offering a Virtual Run option for all our races. So if you can't make it out to the Live Race, you can still enjoy the fun goal, virtual camaraderie, and sweet swag that we’ll ship to you!
You can choose to make your own personal course from anywhere in the world. In the spirit of this being an off road race, we prefer you find some dirt or grass. It can be a trail or dirt road! If that’s not safely available, then feel free to cruise the distance you signed up for on the treadmill or in your neighborhood.
You are free to run any distance normally offered for this event. Your Virtual Run must be completed by March 29, 2026.
Once you have completed your Virtual Run, you can go here to Upload your Virtual Results: https://zfrmz.com/IGRYIoDlVkbiF8PpXxjs.
Note: You will need your “Runner ID” which will be in your Registration Confirmation Email. You aren’t required to, but you can also upload your Garmin file or other GPS data as well.

The Hippo Trail Fest Virtual Run is only $60 and includes the run, race T-shirt/swag, medal and shipping! Please note any registrations after the T-shirt deadline will receive a different swag item based on availability (such as a neck gaiter, hat, beanie, arm warmers, socks, etc.) instead of the race shirt. Be sure to register by Feb. 24, 2026 to guarantee a race shirt and medal.
Your race swag and medal will be shipped to you within two weeks after the Live Race Date.
