About the Event

Fort Worth's urban landscape transforms into a 48-year fitness legacy at The Cowtown Marathon on March 1, 2026, where North Texas' largest multi-event race honors nearly five decades of community evolution while projecting forward through its pioneering C.A.L.F. youth fitness program. This comprehensive racing weekend—spanning ultra marathon distances through children's 5K events—represents both athletic tradition and social innovation, having distributed over 65,000 pairs of running shoes to low-income students across sixteen school districts. More than sequential races, Cowtown demonstrates how endurance events can generate sustained educational impact, turning finish line celebrations into lifelong fitness foundations for thousands of first-time participants.

With record-breaking registration numbers reflecting its status as a regional institution, the gathering maintains intimate connection through student-focused initiatives that guarantee discounted youth entries and prioritize accessibility. The weekend's true distance isn't measured in marathon miles but in generational reach, proving that the most enduring races are those where community investment crosses the line alongside every finisher.
