Pechanga Trail Run
Derived from the Luiseno Indian Tribe, meaning "the place where the water drips" as well as the Spanish word for "party" come join us for the Pechanga Trail Run! Let's welcome the Summer with a trail running party you'll remember forever! Combine one of Texas' best swimming holes with great single track, add some loud music, a beautiful privately owned ranch, outdoor movies, free prize giveaways, food trucks, games, Family and Kids Zone, bounce houses, and trail running all day and you have the Pechanga Trail Run!
Event Postponement Notice
Due to recent severe weather conditions, portions of the trail system and access roads have become unsafe and, in some areas, impassable. After careful evaluation and in coordination with local officials and land managers, we have made the difficult decision to postpone the upcoming event.
The safety of our participants, volunteers, and staff is always our top priority. Current conditions present risks that prevent us from delivering the safe and high-quality race experience that you expect and deserve.
We are actively working to secure a new date and will share updated event details as soon as possible. All registered participants will receive further communication regarding options and next steps.
Here are the following options we are providing to all our participants:
A.) Transfer your registration to any other Perspective Pacing event within the next year.
B.) Transfer your registration to Pechanga May 1st 2027
C.) Run the new scheduled date for Pechanga which will be August 22nd 2026
If you choose A, please send us an email at info@perspectivepacing.com with the event name and race distance you would like to transfer your registration to. Once we receive that request, we will begin the process and you will receive an email confirmation from Runsignup.
If you choose B or C, all you need to do is confirm in an email to us and we will take care of registration for either date.
We appreciate your understanding and continued support, and we look forward to welcoming you back to the trails soon under better conditions.

Medals will be given to all finishers. We understand that sometimes there are circumstances that prevent someone from finishing the race. As a token for your effort we would still like to offer those who make an attempt at any distance, a medal to commemorate the miles they did complete. Hopefully it will serve as a reminder to comeback and get the job done!

Everyone will receive an event shirt so long as you are signed up before the shirt cutoff date which is 4/23. If you do not sign up by this date you will receive some other item, whether it be a past year event shirt, or Perspective Pacing garment, either way you'll have a couple of options.
