The Race

The Course

​

Watch Dallas come alive as the sun goes down. Voted the best skyline in the world by USA Today, the Urban Ultra showcases some of the best views of Dallas.

​

The only race that is run entirely on the Skyline trail, racers experience electric views while running on a flat fast loop course consisting mostly of pavement with a small portion of gravel road.

​

The course is run at night so be sure to bring a headlamp. This race is a great opportunity for a PR and is designed to allow road runners to crossover and get the trail experience.

​

After the race celebrate your finish at the Trinity Groves bars and restaurants - only steps away.
