Run in the footsteps of actual OUTLAWS!! The Outlaw course is located in the Robbers Cave State Park near Wilburton, Oklahoma. Robbers Cave State Park (established in 1935 by the Civilian Conservation Corps) is associated with OUTLAW names like Jesse James, Belle Star, and the Youngers. The Park consists of 8,246 acres of scenic views with bluffs overlooking three large lakes, rock formations, and caves to be “enjoyed” as you navigate the mainly single track, forested, technical terrain with an abundance of rocks and roots. This is a USATf sanctioned event.

Cactus Roulette is a duration trail race hosted by the Lawrence Trail Hawks with 4 time options - 24 hours, 12 hour pm (Owl), 12 hour am (Lark), and 6 hours. There are three different loops ranging from 1.9 to 3.6 miles. Prior to each loop, runners will spin a roulette wheel to determine which loop they run next.

Base camp for the race will be at Group Camp 3 at Clinton Lake State Park in Lawrence, Kansas. Each loop will begin and end at base camp. There will be food, water, porta potties, heaters, and access to personal drop bags. 

It is hard to get a good run in July in Oklahoma. It’s hot and humid. A great night trail run and a party is the best way around it. In addition, you want a safe venue. This run will have all that you need. With two 5k courses (one rocky single track and the other a gravel road), this run will allow all ages, genders, and ability levels to feel safe and enjoy a great run. Dark and Dirty Miles at Robbers Cave will offer distances of 5k, 10k, 25k, and 50k. We will also have the same campgrounds rented as for the Outlaw and a nice summer bonfire party. Come hang out and get Dirty!
