The energy is electric, the streets are vibrant, and the running community is second to none. Whether this is your first marathon or your fiftieth, you’re about to experience one of the most iconic races in the heart of Texas.

This year, we’re also introducing some exciting changes to enhance your race experience!

Be sure to read through all the event details carefully before you toe the line on Sunday—you won’t want to miss a thing! As you run, you’ll be treated to stunning sights, including our historic neighborhoods, vibrant downtown, and, of course, the ultimate photo-op finish in front of the Texas State Capitol. Every mile is packed with energy, support, and Austin’s unique charm. And what’s a celebration without a little swag? Every finisher—yes, even our 5K crew—will receive a legendary belt buckle finisher medal.

Marathoners, you will also be picking up an awesome long sleeve finisher shirt! Hold onto your medal—it’s time to party! Join us at the Finisher Festival to celebrate in style. Kick back in the beer garden (21+), grab a bite from local food trucks, and dance it out to live music on historic Congress Avenue. It’s the perfect way to revel in your incredible accomplishment.
