Organiser's description

The Xpress Half Marathon Is probably one of the most flat and fast Half Marathon around. Only 67 ft elevation for the whole course. Our 12k route is even flatter.Thats why we claim the name the "Flastest" Half marathon around. If you are looking for a first HM, or getting a PR..this is your event!

Starting at Memorial Stadium, the course takes you to the Lake Wichita Park paved trail system and guides you along the banks of Lake Wichita with great views of our beautiful park. This is an out and back course with a detour on the way back which takes you down Chat trail. Chat trail is 1.5 miles of gravel trail with stunning views. The 12k route uses a portion of the half marathon course.

The 5k route starts at the same time and winds through the beautiful neighborhood behind the stadium. Also very flat course. A perfect course for your first 5k.

Proceeds go to OHANA SAFETY FUND, a nonprofit fund to expand learning of road safety to all! Working closely with TXDOT this fund will help with education of road safety for runners, cyclists, and all who share the road. This fund is in honor of those who have lost their lives doing what they love in the local North Texas area.
