Get your cowboy boots and your stopwatch ready—we’re taking you straight to Texas to smash some records. Time to wake up the cowboy sleeping inside you and charge toward the finish line!
Head to Austin, the Texan capital of the United States, for a must-attend running event. The race offers two formats: the famous half marathon and a pair relay for those who love sharing the effort.
The course lives up perfectly to its nickname, "Downhill to Downtown," offering a true launchpad to obliterate your personal best. From the northern neighborhoods, get ready to fly down the wide avenues all the way to the area around the famous Texas State Capitol, one of the region’s most iconic buildings. Along the way, Austin’s cultural DNA comes fully to life with around ten live bands setting the pace for every stride. The live music capital of the world lives up to its reputation, with a vibrant buzz lining the roadside.
The atmosphere promises to be electric, with thousands of spectators cheering athletes on in a typically American vibe. Once the medal is around your neck, the city opens its arms wide for active, fun recovery. Hop in the car for less than an hour to soak in the natural thermal waters of Barton Springs Pool or explore the trails of the beautiful McKinney Falls State Park with the family. Don’t limit your trip to the usual local barbecues—enjoy Lady Bird Lake instead for a relaxing couples paddle session.
All that’s left is to confirm your registration to experience this extraordinary sporting adventure in the heart of the Lone Star State. Don’t forget that a getaway to the stunning Texas Hill Country, just 45 minutes away by car, will treat you to unforgettable sunsets to round off the trip. Go grab your bib and come make history in Austin!
