The Paramount Break-A-Leg 5K In Austin

Each year, thousands of brave souls gather in the heart of downtown Austin to put their bodies to the ultimate test of endurance: twenty six miles or thirteen. If your physique is fine tuned enough for the  LIVESTRONG Austin Marathon and Half Marathon®, sign up here and be very proud of yourself.  If you are on the market for a more moderate run that still earns you a Nike dri-fit t-shirt (I call it proof), check out the Paramount Break-A-Leg 5K.  This annual event supports the Paramount and State Theatres and is in conjunction with the Austin Marathon and Half Marathon.
