Livestrong Austin Marathon

All eyes were on Austin this weekend as 20,000 runners from all over the world came to participate in the 20th anniversary of the Livestrong Austin Marathon. The event is one of the largest in the country and pacers were available to qualify for the Boston Marathon which is set at 3 hours and 30 minutes. It’s a wonderful event and reminder of the health conscious city we live in.
The 26.2 mile course included historic and scenic areas of Austin like Congress Avenue, Hyde Park and the UT Campus.
