THE JAILBREAK
Rewind the clock to the birth of Texas. Outlaws ruled the West. Gangs were locked up by brave Sheriffs in primitive jails, but Breakouts were common: over land and over water, desperados fled the law and raced away into the sunset.
Now, in Austin, TX, Texas Pride Racing is excited to announce another Breakout event. This Winter, we bring you the inaugural running of The Jailbreak Adventure Race.
In the spirit of the Texas Outlaws, join us to paddle, ride, and trek your way through unforgiving land as you make a (hopefully) clean getaway back to your homesteads. Test your skills on two courses for the Jailbreak: a 6-hour Sheriff’s Sprint or 12-hour Outlaw Extreme. How long will you survive before the law catches up to you?

THE JAILBREAK ADVENTURE RACE
If you’re new to the outlaw life or just looking to make a quick getaway, the Sheriff’s Sprint is your ticket to freedom. This 6-hour course is built for greenhorns and fast-moving bandits alike, with clear trails and easy-to-spot landmarks guiding your escape. You’ll ride on pavement and beginner-friendly trails, trek through open terrain, and paddle calm waters—all under the watchful eye of the Texas sun. For those looking to push the pace, optional checkpoints offer a chance to earn extra glory. Navigation is light, speed is king, and the whole race wraps up before sundown. It’s a perfect way to dip your boots into the world of adventure racing without getting lost in the wild.
Now, if you’re the kind of racer who thrives on grit, dust, and the unknown, the Outlaw Extreme is where legends are made. This 12-hour gauntlet will test your team’s strength, smarts, and survival instincts from dawn ‘til dusk. You’ll ride single-track and rugged jeep roads, trek through thorn-choked forests and wide-open prairie, and paddle into the hidden arms of Lake Georgetown where cliff bands and caves await. The checkpoints won’t be hidden, but they sure won’t be easy—you will have to earn every point. As the sun sets, you’ll need your lanterns out to light the way to the finish. It’s a challenge fit for outlaws who ride hard, think fast, and aim to etch their names into the wild Texas lore.
Maps and course instructions will be handed out the morning of the race—no advance scouting, no sneak peeks. Just like a real jailbreak, you won’t know the full escape route until it’s time to ride. We’ve posted some rough distances below, but out in the wild, nothing’s guaranteed.
