Event Details

Featuring a mostly fast and flat course, with a few gentle rolling hills thrown in, Shreveport's YMCA Half Marathon & 5K Road Race takes runners through Riverview Park along the jogging trails that run alongside the Red River that cuts through downtown Shreveport. Both the half-marathon and the 5K take runners out and back on the jogging trail along the river and feature beautiful views of the city and the river along the way. The event starts at 8:00 AM for the half marathon and 8:15 AM for those running the 5K.
