Garland Guzzler 0.5K Race

Did you miss out on the inaugural Garland Guzzler 0.5K Race last year??? Well, we are proud to announce the fun-filled and award-winning event is coming back this September and will be better than ever!!!

With only six months left to train, we want to see more lederhosen, more yodeling and of course, more racers coming across the finish line, so put down the potato chips and lace up your once used athletic shoes and get ready to set a new world or Garland record!!!

That’s right underachievers, the City of Garland will host the second Garland Guzzler 0.5K Race on Saturday, September 28, 2019, at Downtown Garland Square. That’s no typo; this is a POINT 5K which is only…546 yards, 500 meters or 1,638 feet and we want to see you there!

This is a chip-timed event that will help you train for that marathon you may or may not ever run. There are plenty of overnight accommodations near the course so you can rest comfortably after an evening of to much fun. Oh, and don't forget the race SWAG; you will be the highlight of your local establishment with your custom race medal, slide-on medal, and race shirt. The slide-on medal fits perfectly over last year's base medal. Didn't run last year? Never fear, you can add on the base medal during registration or purchase one at the race itself. We have a few other surprises in the works so stay tuned to our social media platforms as details become available.

Join your fellow racers for an evening of Oktoberfest themed racing, games, food, and of course live music. We hope to see everyone on their best or “wurst” behavior. This event is a dog-friendly event, so bring your best friend in their best costume to help you “run” across the finish line!

What are you waiting for? Get up off the couch, brush the crumbs off your pajama pants, and register for the race today! This is one event that you will not want to miss!
