Lace up your running shoes for the Red, White and Blue Half Marathon - Dallas, a patriotic and family-friendly event hosted by Bigfoot Running Company on July 18, 2026, in Dallas, TX. This exciting race offers a variety of distances to suit every runner, including a Half Marathon (13.1M), 8M, 4M, 2M, and even a Kids Dash (50M), ensuring a memorable experience for all ages and abilities. The atmosphere is consistently praised as vibrant and engaging, with DJ Sasquatch spinning tunes at the lively race rally tent, creating a festive backdrop for your run.

The scenic course, primarily set within Anderson Bonner Park, is designed to take participants through appealing Texas trails. While past courses have featured generally flat terrain, making it accessible for both beginners and experienced runners, be prepared for an engaging run within the park's natural beauty. Multiple aid stations will be strategically placed along the route, providing essential hydration and support to keep you moving toward the finish line. Typical race day conditions in mid-July Dallas feature highs around 97F and lows around 78F, with a minimal 6% chance of precipitation, so prepare for warm weather.

Beyond the finish line, celebrate your achievement with a super comfy Red, White and Blue Half Marathon race T-shirt and a unique Texas-themed medal, awarded to all finishers across all distances. Top finishers in the 4-mile, 8-mile, and Half Marathon categories will also vie for the coveted Bigfoot trophy. The event's strong patriotic vibe, honoring military personnel and veterans, adds a meaningful touch to this well-organized and community-focused race. With a focus on participant experience, this event promises to be a highlight of your running calendar.
