Event Overview
The Sunrise Marathon in San Antonio is a private group running event held at Lady Bird Johnson Park. The event is organized by The Best Races and features a scenic course designed for a small group of participants. This run is open to all ages and paces, and participants under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian.
The event is designed as a stress-free run. There are no timing chips or complex setups. Instead, coordinators are present to support participants during the activity. While timing is optional, those who wish to track their performance can use common mobile apps or seek assistance from the event staff to record their results for the online leaderboard.
Distance Options
Participants can choose from several distances:
- 1 Mile Fun Run
- 5 km
- 10 km
- 13.1 miles (Half-Marathon)
Logistics and Swag
Packets do not need to be picked up in person. Instead, most items are shipped directly to the participant's registered US address. The swag bag includes a running T-shirt, a finisher's medal, and a towel or other giveaway. Participants also receive a digital training pack and a certificate of completion. Race bibs are provided on-site on the day of the event.
A virtual run option is also available for those who prefer to complete their distance at a location and time of their choice. Virtual participants can submit their results to receive a finisher's medal.
Charity and Community
The event includes a charitable initiative where every mile logged after the race results in a small donation to partner organizations. Additionally, participants are invited to join local running clubs to support their ongoing fitness journey. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
