HALF-MARATHON
Austin's Most Scenic 13.1 Miles
Starts at 8:00 AM — One hour before the 5K & 5-Miler
The half-marathon follows approximately ten laps of the scenic 5K lakeside course at Bob Wentz Park, totaling 13.1 miles along the Lake Travis shoreline. Starting at 8:00 AM, a full hour before the shorter distances, you'll enjoy quieter paths and cooler temperatures for your early miles.
Each lap delivers stunning waterfront views of Lake Travis and the Texas Hill Country. The varied sandy terrain provides a natural training stimulus while reducing joint impact compared to road running.
