Dallas Marathon

Dallas Marathon

The Texas puts on a show for the state's oldest marathon, turning downtown Dallas into a giant playground. The start line at the foot of the skyscrapers in the City Center launches runners into striking modern architecture, in an electric atmosphere from the very first light of day.

The route quickly veers toward White Rock Lake, offering a long, peaceful loop along the water that contrasts with the urban hustle. The miles tick by through iconic neighborhoods like Deep Ellum, Swiss Avenue and Turtle Creek, where locals set up bands and wild aid stations on their lawns. Also available as a half marathon, 50 km ultra and relay, the event promises a fast-paced challenge and a raw immersion in the Texan spirit.
