How fast is it?

Faster than most Texas marathons

The fastest quarter of the 2024 marathon field finished under 3:12:09, against 4:15:54 in a typical Texas marathon, so times here run 25 percent faster.

Compares the fastest quarter of each field, so walkers and first-timers do not skew it. It reflects the course and the field together: a flat course, cool weather, or a competitive crowd all make times faster.

Typical race-day weather

Around March 6 the day usually runs from 51°F at dawn to 73°F in the afternoon, with measurable rain on about 28% of days. Cold snaps dip to 38°F and hot years reach 81°F.

Based on 76 days within a week of the date over the last 5 years, from historical weather for the start area. Not a forecast.
