Recurring Half Marathon races near Tyler

Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly

Tyler Rose Half Marathon & 5-Mile
THU OCT 15
The Tyler Rose Half Marathon & 5-Mile begins at the Rose Center in Tyler, Texas. This Piney Woods city is known as the rose capital of the nation. The race is scheduled to coincide with the annual Texas Rose Festival, placing runners in the city during the period when its identity is closely tied to its flower industry. Previously named the Tyler Half & 5K, the current name emphasizes the rose connection. The half marathon route proceeds east on Houston Street, turns south onto Englewood Avenue, and then returns to Erwin Street. It continues nearly a mile east toward Vine Avenue. From there, participants run south along Vine, Augusta, and Robertson. The course features rolling hills in the initial section, followed by steeper ascents later, particularly between miles 6 and 8 on Sunnybrook Drive, Vine, Alamo Drive, and back to Robertson. The race weekend also aligns with the Rose Festival’s parade, rose show, and tours of local rose fields and farms.

The Next Loop Endurance Series- Tyler, TX Nov
SAT NOV 14
The Next Loop Endurance Series in Tyler, Texas, is a November trail race at Tyler State Park centered on a single, repeated 3.1-mile dirt singletrack loop. Participants begin together, completing one 5K-style lap at a time, continuing until they reach their chosen distance, opt to stop, or reach the event's limit. The Tyler event also features 40-mile and 50-mile distances, each with a 12-hour time limit, allowing the race to serve as an initial trail test, a supported long run, or a complete ultramarathon endeavor. The loop crosses the pine forests of East Texas, featuring winding paths, tall pines, undulating terrain, consistent ascents, smooth runnable sections, shaded areas, and intermittent lake vistas. A central start-finish point functions as the aid station each lap, providing runners consistent access to hydration, nutrition, crew assistance, race personnel, and personal staging spots. The repetitive loop design eliminates navigation concerns, shifting the focus to pacing, fueling, and determining if another lap is feasible. Each completed lap is recorded, and the format is designed for runners of varying experience, from novices to ultra athletes honing their patience over numerous circuits.

About Half Marathon races in Tyler

Tyler Training Notes

Tyler hosts 11 Half Marathon races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Locals run Tyler through parks first, then stretch the long stuff onto Loop 323, Broadway, and Garden Valley. The short loop covers 09 km while gaining 53 m. The long loop covers 71 km with 47 m of gain. Tyler State Park brings roots, lake shade, and the distinct sound of the wind rustling through the trees overhead. Civitan International sits in the local club mix. 1M, Tyler Rudolph Run, Instant Classic, and FRESH 15 give the calendar real anchor races.

Tyler riders get plenty without leaving town. Rose City Cycling covers road, gravel, leisure, racing, and mountain bike rides, and Tyler Bicycle Club welcomes visitors on weekly rides. FATT has Thursday fun rides from Faulkner Park. Faulkner Park gives riders more than 9 miles of trails, with Hoot and Holler for a shaded twisty lap and Blackberry Patch for a quick hit. Tyler State Park has more than 13 miles of trails, and Lindsey Park has 15 miles. Greer Hill is where locals go looking for bite, while Smith County rolls between 300 and 600 feet. Beauty and the Beast, Fresh Road Race Course, Poker Run, and the Spokes keep riders honest.

Spring works well for both sports, and summer works if locals respect the heat. Summer in Tyler runs hot and humid, with maximum temperatures exceeding an average of 91 days per year and high to very high relative average humidity. Runners move Z2 and intervals earlier, and cyclists stack base miles before the sun gets mean. Tyler State Park, Faulkner Park, and Rose Rudman still carry the week, but shade matters more. Winter keeps the same routes alive, though February 16, 2021, reminds locals that Tyler can still get a real cold snap.
