Running Through the Decades – 1980s Edition
The Running through the Decades Half Marathon in San Antonio is an 1980s-themed event hosted by Bigfoot Running Company. Located at Eisenhower Park, the event features a nostalgic atmosphere with 80s music and a pre-race costume contest. Participants are encouraged to wear retro attire such as leg warmers, headbands, and neon clothing.
Multiple distances are available to accommodate different preferences:
- Half Marathon (13.1 miles)
- Quarter Marathon (6.55 miles)
- 5K (3.11 miles)
- 1 Mile Fun Run
- Kids Dash (approx. 50 meters)
- Virtual Run
The courses consist of mixed surfaces, including paved trails, park paths, crushed granite, and dirt. Support stations providing water are located along the routes. The 5K, Quarter Marathon, and Half Marathon are chip-timed events.
Each participant receives a finisher medal and a soft-material t-shirt. Awards include Bigfoot Trophies for the first overall male and female finishers in the timed categories, as well as recognition pins for Masters (40+) and various age groups ranging from 10 and under to 70 and over. Snacks and refreshments are provided at the post-race Rally Tent. The event proceeds rain or shine in public park spaces. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
