The Woodlands Marathon Half Marathon & 10k

Runners will start all of the event’s five races along or just off Lake Robbins Drive near The Woodlands Mall, and those running the full marathon, half marathon and marathon relay will follow the same loop course that leads west from the mall — runners in the half marathon will make a single loop around the course, while those running the full marathon and relay will make two loops around the course. From Lake Robbins Drive, the course heads right onto Grogans Mill Rd for the first mile before a left onto Research Forest Dr which runners will remain on for the next 4 miles. At around the 5.5 mile mark, the course takes a left onto Kuykendahl Rd, taking runners south for the next two miles. Participants make a left onto Lake Woodlands Dr, heading east back towards the finish line, taking them through Shadowbend Park and Meadow Lake Park for the next 4 miles. They’ll head all the way back to the race finish near The Woodlands Mall, where they’ll cross the finish line next to the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavillion. Runners as well as wheelchair competitors will be welcome in the half marathon, and both will need to be able to complete the race’s 13.1 miles by 1:30 PM in order to be recorded as an official finisher — which means you’ll need to keep a pace of 14 minutes, 30 seconds per mile or better.
