School & Collegiate Teams

Students, teachers, alumni, and school organizations—this is your chance to represent your school on race day! The Austin Marathon Team Program is the perfect way for education groups to come together, set goals, and take on an exciting challenge. Racing as a team builds camaraderie, school spirit, and a shared sense of achievement. Choose your distance—Marathon, Half Marathon, or 5K—and make memories that last beyond the finish line.

Running is a powerful way to inspire leadership, perseverance, and teamwork—skills that go beyond race day and into the classroom and beyond. Whether you’re competing for fun, fitness, or a personal best, this is your opportunity to run together, grow together, and represent your school in an unforgettable way!
