Marathon & Half Marathon Warm-Up Series Bundles
Born in 1986, the HARRA Warm-up Series has consisted of races executed by organizations that dedicate part of their proceeds to support local charities. In fact, in the early days, proceeds from the events went to help install the trail lights in Memorial Park.
Those preparing for the marathon find the gradually increasing distances of 10M, Half Marathon, 25K, and 30K spaced about a month apart, ideal for marathon training. The Half Marathon warm-up series also follows a progression of 5K, 10K, and 10M races before ending with a 10K that can be a race pace trial.
Although each race provides registration on individually managed sign-up pages, the HARRA bundles provided here offer a simple means of signing up for all races at once with a discounted total price, organized courtesy of the Houston Area Road Runners Association.
Bundles are priced based on early tier prices for each of the events below. The price is fixed with no price tiers.
