Come on out and see for yourself! Enjoy these flat and fast routes starting on the Katy Trail near Bike Stop Cafe and the Katy Depot. All the routes go through Frontier Park then north on the soft path. Beautiful river views! The 5k turns around in Dusable Park. The 10k continues on the shady, non-technical trail that runs parallel to the Katy Trail. The half marathon course will include 2 loops + of the 10k! Post run fun at the Bike Stop Cafe including coffee and beer specials and social time on the patio!
