Austin, Texas is a unique city providing a blend of Old West charm, southern hospitality, and modern sophistication. Austin not only offers more than century's worth of history as the capital of Texas, but also lays claim to the title of 'Music Capital of the World', 'Silicon Hills', and the most progressive city in Texas because of the local's devotion to the mantra 'Keep Austin Weird'. With bright clear skies, sunny landscapes, and a bustling downtown, Austin is best seen while afoot. By offering an assortment of themed runs, CRT Austin allows you to explore the history of Texas' statehood, Austin's vibrant music scene, and a beautiful run around Lady Bird Lake that ends with Austins's famous Bat colony exodus from the South Congress Bridge. By running with City Running Tours, you can see these things first hand with a knowledgeable guide who shares your passion for running.

Meet our Austin Manager - Lee Ackerley

A running enthusiast since his first steps, Lee has had a lifelong obsession with running. After leaving his native Houston for Boston to attend college, Lee found a way to continue his passion for  running by becoming a guide at City Running Tours Boston. The job  allowed him to merge two of his greatest passions, meeting new people and running.  Homesick for Texas after finishing school, Lee moved to Austin where his passion for people and running continues in one of America's most health-conscious and non-traditional cities. Lee has run over 12 marathons and wants to make it 100 by the end of his running days. Known to explore new routes, find historical landmarks, and take the unbeaten path, he will share with you both the main attractions and the hidden gems Austin has to offer!
