The 2027 Austin Marathon is a hilly downtown-to-downtown city tour starting at 2nd & Congress and finishing on Congress Avenue near the Texas State Capitol. The course climbs about 1,015 feet over the first 17 miles, with notable climbs between miles 4-6 and 11-12, then descends over the final 9 miles. It is USATF-certified and a Boston qualifier, with a 7-hour time limit.
February in Austin is mild and bright, ideal for a long run along Lady Bird Lake before the heat sets in. After the race, refuel with breakfast tacos on South Congress, browse the vintage shops, and soak in the live music scene that makes this city so vibrant.
