The Cowtown Marathon in Fort Worth dropped some news as organizers look ahead to race weekend next year.
The 2026 Cowtown kicks off the newest iconic medal series for finishers. Get ready to race for the cowboy hat in 2026, the boot in 2027, and the sign in 2028.
Registration fees for next year’s races are reduced until midnight on July 30.
The 48th annual Cowtown is scheduled for February 28th & March 1st, 2026, at Will Rogers Memorial Center in Fort Worth, Texas. The 2026 races include multiple virtual options. Proceeds from The Cowtown go directly to the C.A.L.F. Program.
The C.A.L.F. Program was created in 2009 as part of The Cowtown Marathon’s mission to promote a lifelong love of fitness, to help tens of thousands of children from area school districts and community centers lace up and start crossing finish lines.
Staff and volunteers visit approximately 400 schools across North Texas annually, training students in proper running techniques and educating them about resting heart rate, the importance of hydration, proper nutrition, and living an active lifestyle.
The Cowtown Marathon has a $10.4 million annual economic impact in Fort Worth and hosts one of the largest youth races in the nation.
NBC5 and Telemundo 39 return as sponsors in 2026.
