More Than 1,200 Runners and Cyclists Cross Finish Line at Sold Out Life Time Austin Rattler

November 2, 2024

Participants represented 42 states and three countries

Burnet, Texas (November 2, 2024) /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ – Life Time, the nation’s premier healthy lifestyle brand and producer of nearly 30 athletic events, welcomed a combined total of more than 1,200 runners and cyclists to the 2024 Life Time Austin Rattler MTB & Run in Burnet, Texas this weekend.

Just outside of Austin, Texas, the Reveille Peak Ranch was the perfect location for this Texas-style celebration of endurance. Run participants raced in 50K, 20-mile or 10-mile distances, while mountain bike participants raced in 60-mile, 40-mile or 20-mile distances.

In the idyllic recreation destination of Texas Hill Country, the event offered onsite camping for participants looking to enjoy the scenery for the full weekend. A variety of distances and disciplines, plus kids races on Friday afternoon meant there was an offering for every age and ability. Participants ranged between the ages of 12 and 81 and traveled with their friends and family from 42 states and three countries to take part in the weekend festivities.

The courses gave athletes the opportunity to take in the sparkling lakes and rolling hills of the ranch on fast single track and fire roads. After crossing the finish line, participants were welcomed to the finish festival with live music, beer, Texas BBQ and awards to celebrate the day’s work!

Athletes taking on the 60-mile MTB event or the 50K run event had the opportunity to qualify for the legendary Life Time Leadville Trail 100 MTB presented by Kenetik or Life Time Leadville Trail 100 Run presented by La Sportiva in Leadville, Colorado, respectively.

“The Life Time Austin Rattler is a race for everyone,” said Peter Spencer, Race Director for Life Time Austin Rattler. “From seasoned athletes looking to qualify for the Leadville Race Series to families looking for a fun outdoor adventure at the end of the season, we welcome anyone to join us in beautiful Texas Hill Country for this one-of-a-kind experience.”
