Heatwave Half Marathon - Memphis 2026

Heatwave Half Marathon - Memphis is a summer race day in Memphis built around a half marathon, 10K, 5K, half-marathon relay, 1 mile, Kids Dash, volunteer-then-run option, and virtual race. It is set up for families as well as adults chasing a longer run, with youth pricing for runners ages 12 and under and an untimed Kids Dash for children 10 and under. The in-person races use chip timing with live results and awards, while the 1 mile and Kids Dash keep the pressure low. Half marathon, 10K, 5K, and 1 mile runners get a custom bib, designer shirt, and finisher medal; Kids Dash runners get a mini bib, youth shirt, and their own medal. The finish-line touch that fits the name is free ice cream, and the virtual option lets runners earn the race swag without coming to Memphis.
