THE DREAM

About OUTLAST DALLAS FORT WORTH — what makes it special

ABOUT THE RACE

A day you'll remember,
long past the finish line.

A 5km lap starts at the top of every hour.

If you finish within that hour, you can rest for the remaining time before heading out again at the next hour.

If you do not make it back in time, your race is over.

The Dallas-Fort Worth event offers 6-hour, 12-hour and 24-hour categories.

Completing six laps earns the Outlast title.
