The Stages Cycling Austin Rattler MTB and Run events, owned and produced by Life Time, took place on Saturday, November 5th. The events brough more than 1,000 runners and cyclists to Reveille Peak Ranch, located less than an hour west of Austin, Texas.
Combining MTB riding and running, the Austin Rattler was the final event on the Leadville Race Series 2022 calendar. The event is a qualifier for the Life Time Leadville Trail 100 Run presented by La Sportiva and the Stages Cycling Leadville Trail 100 MTB.
A total of 40 LT100 qualifier coins were up for grabs at each Austin Rattler Run & MTB event. Of the 40 total coins, 20 slots for each event are distributed based on performance while the other 20 slots for each event are distributed through the event lottery.
Athletes representing 46 US states and five countries and aged 3 to 79 years old took on various event distances across the weekend.
“It’s super exciting to see this event grow to be a sold-out event, with riders and runners coming from all over, descending on the Texas Hill Country to experience the scenic views and thrilling terrain of the area,” said Peter Spencer, Event Manager at Life Time.
“Today’s beautiful weather and the amazing energy from the spectators, participants, volunteers and staff, made for a truly memorable race weekend, complete with first class racing and Texas-style post-race party.”
