Run the Line Half-Marathon

The Run the Line Half Marathon is a unique opportunity to run in one half marathon in Texas and Arkansas on a USATF certified single-loop course.  The race starts at W. Broad Street and Texas Blvd in downtown Texarkana, Texas, quickly moves into Arkansas, crosses back into Texas, and finishes in Texarkana, Arkansas. The course includes 10-ft wide asphalt trails that wind through residential neighborhoods on city streets. The finish line is downtown at 3rd and Wood Streets in front of the Hopkins Ice House about 5 blocks from the start.  

We are again in the prestigious 2024 Arkansas Grand Prix Series. We will be one of only a few half marathon in the 2024 Series. This will be our 14th year to proudly be in the Series. The Arkansas Grand Prix Series is a series of  races affiliated with RRCA and Arkansas running clubs throughout the state. Information about the Grand Prix series is available at www.arkrrca.com. 

We are a Road Runner Club of America event member. We have also applied to be a qualifying race again in the 2024 Natural State Running Series. The races and registration are available at www.naturalstateruns.com. 

A portion of the course is on the Texas/Arkansas State Line. The 2024 course is USATF certified (AR19015WJT). The race includes chip timing, runners, walkers, and 2-person and 4-person relay teams.
