About the American Hero 25K Relay & Half Marathon
The course runs along the Salado Creek Greenway at Comanche Park, a flat paved path that loops back on itself several times. Because the route repeats, you pass the same stretch again and again, which some runners find motivating and others find monotonous. The relay format means you will see teammates coming and going at the exchange point, which keeps the atmosphere moving.
Packet pickup happens the weekend before the race at a local running store on Broadway. The organizers strongly encourage picking up beforehand to keep race-morning lines short. Race-day pickup is available for those who need it, but early arrival is advised. Catered food and drinks are provided at no extra charge to registered participants.
