About

Area 51 (Irving, TX) takes place on September 19, 2027 in Irving, Texas, with a theme inspired by the famous military base. The starts come early: the Kid's Dash at 6:45 a.m., the half marathon (13.1 miles / 21.1 km) at 7:00 a.m., the 10K at 7:05 a.m., then the 5K and the 1 mile (1.6 km) at 7:15 a.m. An event T-shirt, finisher medal and age-group awards are planned, with special trophies for the overall and masters winners.

With five races on the same morning, it suits groups of mixed abilities. In the Texas heat of September, the very early start matters: it lets you run before temperatures climb, and it is worth doing a few training runs at that hour before race day.
