The Santa Fe Railyard serves as the mission-critical logistics hub for the Santa Fe International Half Marathon. Selected for its deep cultural identity and central geographic footprint, the Railyard provides a high-visibility environment that ensures efficient processing for runners, volunteers, and partners.
Operations are centered on Camino de la Familia, strategically situated between the Railyard Parking Garage, the Water Tower, and the Farmers Market. This specific corridor adjacent to the Warehouse 21 landmark is designed to accommodate high-density foot traffic while maintaining clear navigational lines for both local and international participants.
All participants must adhere to the following schedule. Logistics staff will strictly enforce all cutoff times to ensure race-day preparations remain on track.
