Lost Souls Trail Run

Lost Souls Trail Run takes place in Smithville on October 25, 2026, and offers four trail distances that start in sequence through the morning: the 50K, 31 miles, at 7:00 a.m.; the 25K, 15.5 miles, at 7:30; the 10K, 6.2 miles, at 8:00; and the 5K, 3.1 miles, at 8:30.

Because everything is run on trail, times will be slower than the road equivalents and the effort will feel different, with more short bursts on climbs and more attention paid to footing. The 5K and 10K are approachable for anyone comfortable running an hour off-road. Stepping up to the 25K asks for a weekly long run of two hours on similar ground, while the 50K is a genuine ultra: build to three-to-four-hour long runs, rehearse eating every 30 to 45 minutes, and practice with the pack or bottles you plan to carry.
