Race Details
Join us for the 11th anniversary of the Outlaw Half Marathon! This race is a Texas Hill Country classic and a must-do on the list of Spring Half Marathons. Come and join us for a beautiful course, an awesome after-party, and of course, the experience of being in Luckenbach Texas, where everybody's somebody!
All three races start in historic downtown Luckenbach Texas in front of the old Post Office. The race start has ample room for spectators so bring your friends and family to cheer you on!
All routes are out and back through the scenic backroads of Fredericksburg, Texas. Prepare yourselves for spectacular wild flowers in early April, as well as other classic Hill Country scenery, like longhorns!
The 5K and 10K are relatively flat and very fast - bring your PR legs! The half marathon has rolling hills, as you would expect from the Texas Hill Country.

There are no refunds for the race. Please see our refund policy below:
To produce an awesome race, we coordinate our efforts and plan well in advance, making it difficult and costly to make changes after registration. Medals, bibs, shirts and other items are ordered months before the race and purchased according to the original information provided during registration. As a result, and similar to other races in the industry, iRun Texas and Split Second Productions does not offer refunds of registration fees or deferrals for any reason. In addition, release forms and emergency content are specific to the individual participant. Transferring such information would be a liability to the participant as well as the race. This policy applies to individuals with injuries, unexpected business, family emergencies, etc. There are no exceptions.
We believe Outlaw is best experienced in-person and therefore do not have a virtual event option. Additionally, we are not equipped to ship medals or packets.
