About

Get ready to kick up some sand at the delightfully challenging Sandbagger 8K! Starting from the scenic McBaine Katy Trailhead, you'll embark on a certified 8K that's more than just a run—it's a game of strategy. Before the race, you'll predict how long it will take you to finish, then run without a watch in a staggered start designed to have everyone cross the finish line together. Expect some cheeky competition since this race is notorious for its playful deception. The victor not only wins the race but also takes home the honor of adding a personal touch to the towering traveling trophy. Remember, registration is online only with no race day sign-ups, and feel the thrill of joining the Columbia Track Club for a free entry, or pitch in $10 if you're not a member yet. Don't miss the starting shot—make your time prediction by 7:00 AM and let the games begin!
