Austin's Backyard Marathon

Join us for the inaugural Austin's Backyard Marathon, a unique endurance event that allows you to push your limits in the beautiful Hill Country.

Nestled in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, our event takes place in Lago Vista, just 30 miles northwest of Austin. The race venue offers a perfect blend of natural beauty and challenging terrain, showcasing the best of Central Texas landscapes.

This event combines personal goal setting with the excitement of a last-person-standing format. Every finisher (completing at least a loop) receives a medal! Complete 4 loops for our Half Marathon medal, 7 loops for the Marathon medal, and 8+ loops for the coveted Ultra medal (Ash Juniper cookies). How far will you go?
