The El Scorcho 50K/25K race takes place in Trinity Park in Fort Worth. This summer race is unique because of the format - the race starts at midnight and runs on a 5K (3.1 mile) loop on mostly crushed stone trail, but also pavement, sidewalk, and a basketball court.

In the middle of the summer, night time is often a great time to run, but the humidity levels can really increase over the day, making it tough to do well in a night race. El Scorcho offers a very unique challenge to runners who want to try night running.
