Run through the heart of Texas and keep it weird.
Austin, a 42.195km rhythm

The Austin Marathon is a premier urban race that captures the soulful energy of the "Live Music Capital of the World." Held annually in mid-February, it takes runners on a 42.195km tour of Austin’s most iconic neighborhoods, from the historic State Capitol to the trendy streets of South Congress and the scenic University of Texas campus.

The start in the shadow of the Texas State Capitol is grand, and the rolling hills of South Austin and the final climb to the finish are challenging, but the dozens of live bands performing along the route provide a powerful soundtrack to keep you moving.

An electric atmosphere and a deep sense of community pride await, with the spirit of "Keep Austin Weird" fueling every step.

The Austin Marathon is more than a race. It is a vibrant festival of fitness and music through the heart of Texas. Push your limits and join runners from all over the world in a city where the hospitality is as big as the hills and the music never stops.
