The Outlaw group loves featuring our state parks!! Our newest trail run is the Greater Roadrunner Trail Run at Roman Nose State Park. Roman Nose, named after a Cheyenne chief, is one of Oklahoma’s original seven state parks. It is located just outside of Watonga (just 75 miles from Oklahoma City) in the more northwest part of the state with all that the panhandle landscape offers (or doesn’t offer—very few trees). The run will feature a 4 mile distance as well as a 6 mile loop that can be done twice for a 12 mile option. The trails are mildly technical, mountain bike style single track that winds and meanders over a rugged landscape amongst rock gardens, cactus, and cedar trees along with visual highlights of a mesa known as Inspiration Point overlooking Lake Watonga and the canyon.

Race times

The 12 mile will start at 8 am. The 6 mile will start at 8:30 am. The 4 mile will start at 9 am.

Course Description

Midwest Endurance Race Co brings you the first Mile 0 Trail Race of the Midwest! The Flint Hills Trail is the longest of Kansas’ 3,000-plus miles of public trails. Its history is equally impressive, and a testament to the dedication, generosity and ingenuity of a small handful of Kansans who saw the possibilities for a multi-use, destination trail. For over a century, trains traveled what’s now the Flint Hills Trail. The last train ran the line in the early 1990s. Rails and ties were soon removed. Trees and brush quickly reclaimed the pathway.

The race will be held in mid-April when the weather is typically cool and sunny, although Kansas weather can be unpredictable. Just an hour south of Kansas City you will find The Flint Hills to be a beautiful escape from the big city.

Oklahoma’s Oldest Trail Run!! The race was started in 1999 by Earl Blewett. Earl saw the beauty of Lake McMurtry with its gorgeous scenery, soft, beginner friendly trail system, spectacular lake views, and reputation for having some of the best trails in the state of Oklahoma for running as well as mountain biking. In 2009 Earl turned the race over to the Tatur organization and its race director Ken Childress. Ken did a fantastic job of keeping the quality, history and tradition of the Lake McMurtry Trail Race alive. The Outlaw group began directing the run in 2019 who added their own flair, while keeping the tradition alive with the same great trails and entertaining aid stations.

We're BACK!

The annual Race for Freedom is a 5K run/walk organized by ICT S.O.S. to benefit a local organization involved in the fight against human trafficking. This year's Race for Freedom will be an IN-PERSON & virtual event on Saturday, Sept. 11 and will benefit ICT S.O.S.

ICT S.O.S. has Raised Over $200,000 for Partner Organizations

The annual race raises thousands of dollars each year for a different partner organization working with at-risk youth & adults. This year, we are excited to benefit ICT S.O.S. for our tenth anniversary of both the race and the organization!

Your participation this year helps to support advocacy services for adult survivors of trafficking and exploitation, education for youth in middle and high schools through our trafficking awareness curriculum and upcoming film, resources for professionals and survivors, and training for industries, direct service professionals, educators, volunteers and the community. 

Are you ready to help us raise awareness and funding to stop human trafficking in Wichita?

We invite you to participate in this race by registering to run, walk, participate virtually or purchasing a t-shirt to create real and lasting change in our city!

2020 was no doubt a difficult year for races, including ours. Even though we had to make the gut-wrenching decision to go virtual last year, we were still able to raise over $13,000 for Rise Up for Youth! We missed our runners, walkers and volunteers desperately! 

This year we feel that with about 100 back-up plans and contingencies for safety we can hold an in-person event. We'll be working closely throughout the year with the city, county, Carpenter Place, Timer Guys and our committee to make sure that we can bring you the best possible experience while still keeping everyone safe and healthy! 

Be sure to watch your email and our Facebook page as well as this website for any pertinent information on Covid protocols as they change. We're hopeful that by fall our community will be back to some semblance of normal gatherings. 

Until then: wash your hands, maintain a safe distance from people with cooties and do all you can to stay strong and healthy. Get some fresh air and some good training miles in. We want to see you at the starting line!

Four years ago, we hosted the first "TZ Memorial Sobriety Sprint", in hopes of honoring our friend Zach Arismendez who passed clean and sober on June 4th, 2017. It was a HUGE success! Hundreds of runners came out and we had a blast celebrating our friend. So, we chose to make this fun, family-friendly event an annual thing. If you are clean and sober, the run is a great way to celebrate that! If you’ve lost someone to addiction, the run is a great way to honor & remember them. At Hope is Alive we stand with those in sobriety and honor those we’ve lost. That’s what the Sobriety Sprint is all about! This year's race will mark our fifth “Sobriety Sprint” and the second-ever in Wichita, KS. With a new location, tons of prizes, and surprises along the course this will be an event you will NOT want to miss! All proceeds from this year's "TZ Memorial Sobriety Sprint” will go to the Hope is Alive Scholarship Fund.

Overview

Special Event!! The Flower Moon on May 14th with gorgeous Dreamcatcher-inspired medals!! Located

The Flower Moon on May 14th with gorgeous Dreamcatcher-inspired medals!! Located within Osage Hills State Park (one of Oklahoma’s seven original State Parks), Flower Moon will offer distances of 4, 13.1, 26.2, and 50 (52ish) miles. Yes, the 50 mile is a bit long, but that buckle should make it worth that extra effort. Read the historical book, watch the Scorsese/DiCaprio movie (shooting on location at the park), run the trails, and collect the swag. We have so much planned for this trail run, including Fry Bread Tacos after the race! It is going to be extraordinary!!

Atmosphere!!

This race will be a bit different from most trail runs as runners of the varying distances should finish at similar times. With staggered starting times, all the runs are scheduled for the average finisher to complete the run around 6PM. This will allow us to all eat Fry Bread Tacos together and visit/party after the race.

For those unfamiliar with Dog-N-Jog, our day consists of two races!  We start early with the chip-timed 5k race.  All race participants start at the same time, travel through and around Sedgwick County Park and receive medals upon completion of the race.

Our second race begins at 9:30 and is our 1.5 mile Walk-N-Wag!  Participants may leisurely stroll through this abbreviated course or run to the finish line!  Specific Walk-N-Wag finishers medals will be awarded to these participants as they cross the finish line.

Interested in participating in both?  We have dedicated our Tail Chaser Combo to Katie Partridge- a Dog-N-Jog committee member and former Kansas Humane Society employee.  Katie excitedly added the “Tail Chaser Combo” to our race day activities last year as a way to challenge and reward participants who ran in both the 5k and 1.5 mile events!  Unfortunately, Katie passed away shortly after last years event.  We opted to keep the new addition to the schedule for her.  All participants who sign up for Katie’s Tail Chaser Combo will not only receive a 5k and 1.5 mile finisher medal, but also a 3rd Tail Chaser Combo medal!

One of the best aspects of our event is that it’s put on by a local small business (Indian Hills Animal Clinic) and 100% of all proceeds are donated to our local Kansas Humane Society!

Dexter - KS BBQ 5K and 2M Fun Run
