Reindeer Dash - Marble Falls

Reindeer Dash - Marble Falls is held in Marble Falls, Texas, on December 19, 2026. There is one event, the Reindeer Dash 5K, listed at 3.2 miles and starting at 9:00 a.m. A single distance and a mid-morning gun make for a simple race day with no waves to juggle and no long wait at the start.

Around three miles on the road is the most approachable racing distance there is, which is why it works so well in December: you can enter on a whim, run hard for twenty-something minutes and be home by mid-morning. Runners with a time in mind should treat the opening half mile as the danger zone and hold their effort steady rather than chasing the fast starters. Newcomers can walk-run it without any special preparation.
