Austin enjoys 300 days of sunshine a year. With thriving high tech businesses, a student population of over 50,000, and the seat of the Texas state government, Austin attracts thousands of visitors every year. Unlike Houston, Dallas or San Antonio, Austin still has a wonderful “small town” feel, with lakes, hills, open spaces and greenery that folks seldom associate with Texas.

Known as The Live Music Capital of the World, Austin is an ideal running location with 10 miles of lakeside trails, a vibrant downtown complete with State Capital buildings and museums, a wonderful urban University of Texas campus, and rugged, wooded trails – all within easy reach on foot.
Let City Running Tours – Austin show you the many sides of this historic city while you enjoy an easy “sightseeing” run or pre-marathon tune-up. Just choose from several different tours or we will create a customized run for you; simply choose the type of run, the mileage, and the time that works best for you - and we’ll pick you up at a downtown landmark or in the lobby of your hotel. We’re laid back in Texas, but we often like to run early in the mornings to “beat the heat”, on weekdays and weekends too.
By running with one of our knowledgeable guides, you’ll get a personal tour that works for you. Austin has a huge community of runners, triathletes and swimmers. Our guides are all avid runners who love the city they call home, and would love the opportunity to share it with you.
