Hey, El Paso! The Eagle at Night Aquathlon is back for its second year, and we’re excited to welcome athletes for another unforgettable evening under the lights. This unique multisport race begins with a 400‑meter swim in the 50‑meter outdoor pool, followed by a 5K run around Ascarate Park, finishing at the Ascarate Golf Course.
For those who prefer to stick to land, we’re also offering a standalone 5K run through the park and golf course.
An aquathlon is a multisport event that combines swimming and running, typically in two or three segments. Eagle at Night features a two‑segment format: Swim and Run, making it an accessible and exciting challenge for athletes of all levels.
Eagle Kids Splash & Dash - Registration opens March 13, 2026!
We’re excited to introduce the Eagle Kids Splash and Dash, a brand‑new youth event added to our Eagle at Night Aquathlon lineup. Designed for ages 6–13, this fast‑paced, confidence‑building race features a 100‑meter swim followed by a 1K run. It’s the perfect way for young athletes to challenge themselves, experience multisport racing, and feel the thrill of crossing the finish line under the lights. Whether they’re brand‑new to racing or already love being active, our Eagle Kids Splash and Dash is all about fun, safety, and celebrating every child’s effort.
Eagle Kids Splash and Dash is participatory only.
