Austin Marathon
Austin Marathon is a hilly marathon in Austin, USA, held each February. Honest Texas hill country — a rolling first half with repeated climbs before a kinder run home. February is usually 5-15C, occasionally warm. A course as hilly as Austin Marathon must be trained for specifically — long-run routes should mimic its climbs and descents.
