About the Red, White and Blue Half Marathon - Austin

The course runs through Texas trails with natural surroundings, and several distance options mean you can run as little or as much as you want on the day. There are aid stations along the route, and a DJ plays at the finish area while results and awards are announced live at a race rally tent.

After finishing, snacks and water are set up at the rally tent. The organizer announces every finisher by name and calls up award winners in person, so the post-race gathering has some real energy to it rather than just a quiet dispersal to the parking lot.

Common Questions About the Red, White and Blue Half Marathon - Austin

Will I finish last at the Red, White and Blue Half Marathon - Austin?

Almost certainly not. Half the 13.1 Miles field finished slower than 2:23:29, and the last recorded finisher came in around 3:33:51, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Red, White and Blue Half Marathon - Austin a good first 13.1 Miles?

It is a small race (127 finishers), which is friendlier and less intimidating than a big-city event, though the field thins out. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 13.1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Red, White and Blue Half Marathon - Austin?

The 13.1 Miles winner ran 1:34:47 while the median finisher took 2:23:29. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
