The Parkway Half Marathon has been an annual spring-time tradition for runners and walkers in the Sacramento region for 17 years! This flat, fast, and shady course travels along the American River Parkway through old-growth Oak forests, lush meadows, and pristine riparian habitat, making it a perfect race for a PR, and a scenic journey for everyone!
But the Parkway Half is more than just a race. It is the first, and for nearly a decade, the ONLY race event to donate 100% of its proceeds to benefit the American River Parkway.

My first half marathon experience and it was amazing. So glad I took the chance and signed up! The course was beautiful running along the American river and the post race events were amazing. Great food, nice people and beverages.
