Come rain or shine, the River City Half Marathon, 5k & 10k is on!

The only thing that might delay us in the morning is lightning.  The Leon Creek Greenway does run along a creek bed and there is a potential for low spots and possible flooding.  We will continue to monitor the course up until the race begins.

We GREATLY appreciate your patience and trust.  Come with a great attitude and you will already be a winner.  Thank you very much!

You will see some amazing local wildlife and great south Texas scenery along this paved trail.  And of course, each participant will get an AWESOME tech shirt and finisher’s medal!

We will also have Packet Pickup available race day morning.  However, please make every attempt to pick up your packet on Saturday.

Staggered Starting Times: The Leon Creek Greenway is a public trail and is required to stay open (per City of San Antonio) during our event.  Other runners and bikers will be on the trail and we will need to share it responsibly.

To alleviate congestion on the trail, we will have a staggered start.  At the start of the race, we will have a 3-5 second gap between runners.  If you have a running partner, we will accommodate starting together. The Half Marathon will begin at 7:30am, the 10k will begin at 7:35am and the 5k will begin at 7:40am.  The event will be chip timed, so your time will begin when you cross the starting line.

Please follow trail etiquette and keep to the right of the trail.  Doing so allows for two-way traffic.  You can run side by side, however please use trail courtesy and allow runners to pass you on the left. You may need to run single file at times to allow people to pass you.  By following proper trail etiquette, the race will go smoothly for everyone on the trail and we will have a great time.  We appreciate your support with this.

ATTENTION parents and dog owners:The River City Half Marathon, 5k & 10k is stroller AND pet friendly! We would love for you to run with your kiddos and your tame, properly leashed dog!
