About These Events

Over the last 20 years or so, the ARA-Moe’s Better Half Marathon has evolved into one of the more popular road races in central Texas. Named after San Marcos running guru and race director Dr. Moe Johnson, the ARA-MBHM is known for its challenging and scenic course and often colorful race management.

The Race
The Half Marathon will start promptly at 7:00 a.m.
The Course
The half marathon is run on a fairly challenging, certified course on country roads southeast of the Tanger Outlet Center. It is an out-and-back course that includes a loop of approximately 9 miles. The course is fairly flat between miles 4 and 5.5, and again between miles 7 and 8.5; the rest is moderately-rolling hills, with a rather nasty one at mile 2.5.

THE COURSE WILL CLOSE AT 10:30 A.M.
