The 2027 Half Marathon is a runners-only race, with no walkers. Here is exactly how long the course stays open and what closes when on race morning, Sunday, September 19, 2027.
The Half Marathon course stays open for 3 hours 30 minutes from the 7:30 AM start at Romero’s Park — course support ends at 11:00 AM. That works out to roughly 16 minutes per mile, so plan on a steady running pace to finish inside the window.
The 3-Amigos Relay runs on the same clock: the team’s combined time must fit the same 3-hour-30-minute window. Saturday’s 5K, 10K and Kids Fun Dash run on their own schedule; their start times and any time limits will be posted before race weekend.
Finishing close to the limit? 2027 shuttle times will be posted before race weekend. The walk from the finish at Reunity Resources Farm back to the Romero’s Park lot is 1.1 miles.
If the limit is on your mind, write to info@santafehalfmarathon.com before race weekend — we would rather talk it through now than have you worrying at the mile-9 turnaround.
