About American River Parkway Half Marathon
The Parkway Half Marathon is an annual spring-time tradition for runners and walkers in the Sacramento region! This flat, fast, and shady course travels along the American River Parkway through old-growth Oak forests, lush meadows, and pristine riparian habitat, making it a perfect race for a PR, and a scenic journey for everyone! But the Parkway Half is more than just a race- it is the first, and for nearly a decade, the ONLY race event to donate 100% of its proceeds to benefit the American River Parkway. As of 2026, our cumulative donations have amounted to over $400,000!
These donations help fund habitat restoration, invasive plant removal, trash clean up, kids’ interactive nature trails, and our latest project - drinking fountain installations, of which five have been installed, with two more on the way! As such, participating in the Parkway Half Marathon is the number one way to support your Parkway!
Come on out for the race, stay for the party, and support your Parkway along the way!
