Bigfoot Classic - Corpus Christi

Bigfoot Classic - Corpus Christi takes place in Corpus Christi, Texas, on January 10, 2027. A 50 meter kids dash opens the morning at 7:55 a.m., then the half marathon (13.1 miles), the quarter marathon (6.55 miles), the 5K and the one mile all set off at 8 a.m. The quarter marathon, a little over six and a half miles, is the unusual one on the card and gives runners something between a 5K and a half to aim at.

Pick your distance by where you are in your year rather than by ambition alone. The half suits anyone already running four or five times a week, and a ten to twelve week block with a progressive long run covers it. If you are newer, the 5K and the mile share the same start time and the same finish area, so nobody spends the morning waiting alone. Runners using January as a stepping stone toward a spring marathon can run the half as a paced effort rather than an all out one.
