Picking a 10K in Austin
Lady Bird Lake holds a 10K. The 10-mile Ann and Roy Butler Hike-and-Bike Trail and Boardwalk circles Lady Bird Lake downtown, with crushed granite on parts of it, so a 10K fits between bridges. More places are on our running in Texas guide.
April means the Cap10K. The 50th Cap10K is Sunday, April 11, 2027, the same weekend the Road Runners Club of America holds its national convention at the Hilton Austin. Our Cap10K guide has the course.
Austin is not flat. Many courses roll, especially west of MoPac and in the Hill Country suburbs. Check the course map before you chase a time.
Respect the heat outside winter. From late spring to early fall, run at sunrise, drink before you are thirsty and run by effort rather than pace. Stop and cool down for heavy sweating, weakness or clammy skin; call 911 for confusion or slurred speech. Our zone 2 guide covers training through it.
December 2026 is the busiest month for 10Ks around Austin on the current calendar, with 12 races.

More than 12 miles of trail, including a main 7.5-mile trail, past limestone cliffs along Barton Creek. Austin Parks describes rough, uneven terrain, so treat it as a trail run.
