AUSTIN, Texas, May 7, 2026 /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ – Registration for the 2027 Spurs Austin International Half, formerly 3M Half Marathon, officially opens Tuesday, May 12, 2026, as part of RUN AUSTIN® Launch Week, a citywide celebration running through May 19, 2026.

In conjunction with its sister event, the Ascension Seton Austin Marathon, RUN AUSTIN® Launch Week brings together Austin’s vibrant running community for a full week of registration incentives, daily giveaways, and local group runs across Austin and participating communities.

“Launch Week is about bringing the Austin running community together in a way that feels accessible, exciting, and welcoming to everyone,” said Jack Murray, co-owner of High Five Events. “It’s where ‘maybe’ turns into ‘I’m in’ and the Spurs Austin International Half is the perfect beginner half marathon.”
