What you should know
- Guadalajara sits around 1,550m elevation, so start 10-20 sec/km slower than your sea-level goal pace.
- The name says half marathon but 42.195km is listed, so confirm your registered distance.
- Mornings start cool but strong sun warms things fast, so drink at every aid station even early on.
- Check the official course time limit and closure times, since slower runners may be moved onto sidewalks.
- Pick up your bib at the official expo beforehand, as race-morning pickup is usually not offered.
The information shown here is based on the most recent listing we could find, and may change. Always confirm details on the event's official site before registering.
