Back for its 19th year, the Maudie’s Moonlight Margarita Run (MMR) 5K fun run brings two of Austin’s favorite things together – running and margaritas! Each dollar raised from the race will ensure that the Butler Hike-and-Bike Trail remains one of Austin’s greatest assets for generations to come.

We're excited to welcome runners back for an in-person evening race on Thursday, June 2, 2022 beginning at 8 p.m. at Sand Beach Park in downtown Austin. Participants can choose to run or walk the 5K race and celebrate with Maudie’s Tex-Mex at the finish-line party! 

Registration includes race entry, an iconic MMR t-shirt, and two Maudie's Margaritas and some Maudie's Tex Mex at the post-race party. In celebration of the Butler Trail’s 50th anniversary, MMR will feature fun twists at the event this year. Break out your best 1970s running gear and celebrate with us!

Want your friends and family to celebrate with you at the post-race party? No problem! There are party-only tickets available for your biggest supporters to attend the post-race party!

Your registration fees provide critical funds to our beloved Trail. Thank you so much for your continued support of MMR and The Trail Foundation!
