The Austin Marathon and Half Marathon Return on February 19th

Nearly 18,000 people are expected to come together this year for the epic Austin Marathon and Half Marathon. Returning on Sunday, February 19th, the annual sporting event is now in its 26th year of races, festivities, and a healthy dose of competition. While the main event may be on Sunday, February 19th, the entire weekend is full of special events to mark the occasion.

On Sunday, there will be a number of different race events throughout the day, and the day kicks off at 7 a.m. with both the marathon and the half marathon. The race follows a loop so it starts and ends at the same spot on Congress Avenue. The course makes its way past some of the biggest attractions and sites in Austin. Marathon and half marathon finishers will be greeted at the finish line with a fun festival featuring music, food, drinks, games, and more, so even if you're not running in this year's race, be sure to check it out!
