About the race

Participants in the half marathon and 10K cross the Mississippi River via the longest public pedestrian bridge, enjoying scenic views of Downtown Memphis and the Arkansas floodplains. The event features a newly paved half-marathon course on the Arkansas side.
All runners receive medals and long-sleeve tech shirts.
