36h Annual Huntsville Half & Quarter Marathon & 5K Run

Seven Hills Running Club hosts this race with the proceeds to benefit local charities.  All races start and finish in front of the Health & Kinesiology Center on the Sam Houston State University campus.  The Quarter Marathon is a single loop and the Half Marathon a double loop.  The course winds throught the beautiful SHSU campus, past Captain Byrd Inmate Cemetery, out and back tree-lined Bearkat Blvd. and circles around the Walls Unit (oldest prison in Texas) and what is left of the historic Prison Rodeo Arena.  The 5K course winds throught the SHSU campus.  Both courses are hilly by Houston area standards and it could be hot on race day.  Participate only if you are adequately trained to do so.  All three races will be chip timed.  Time limit is 3 hours and 30 minutes for all three races.
