WELCOME TO THE OLD SCHOOL
Eight years of dirt, sweat, and good old-fashioned trail running. No gimmicks. No unnecessary frills. Just you, the trails, and the challenge ahead.
Set in beautiful Lincoln Parish Park, The Old School brings runners together for a true Louisiana trail-running experience. Whether you're taking on the 8K or going all-in for the 30K, come ready to earn every mile.
THE COURSE & AID STATIONS
Lincoln Parish Park is one of Louisiana's hidden trail-running gems, with wooded singletrack, rolling terrain, and plenty of opportunities to test your legs.
The 8K follows a shorter route breaking off the trails and cutting along the side of the lake back to the finish. The 15K completes one loop of the main MTB trail, while the 30K takes on two loops.
Aid station support: Start/finish plus two on-course aid stations, approximately near miles 3 and 7.
