The course goes out along the Texas City Dike, a narrow strip of road over Galveston Bay, then turns back the same way before looping through a park to the finish. The dike section is fully closed to traffic, so you have the whole road to yourself with open water on both sides for most of the run. The terrain is flat throughout.
There is food and drinks at the finish, and overall and age group awards are part of the post-race setup as well.

Going by the 2025 results, this is a small, friendly field, and the spread of finish times is wide, so this is a mostly recreational race rather than one for club runners.

The Texas City Half Marathon, 10k, 5k, & Mile has been held every year since at least 2025. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
Enter a finish time to see where it lands against the most recent 13.1 Miles results.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
Set a goal and get a pace band: every mile split on a card sized for your phone lock screen, so race morning needs no math.

Almost certainly not. Half the 13.1 Miles field finished slower than 2:10:41, and the last recorded finisher came in around 3:51:27, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.
A field of 283 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. 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.
The 13.1 Miles winner ran 7:19 while the median finisher took 2:10:41. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
