The Visit Tuscaloosa Half Marathon, DCH 5K, and Alabama Credit Union 1 Mile Fun Run are not capped at this time. Sell-out capacities will be publicized, if set.

There are no pacers for the Visit Tuscaloosa Half Marathon, DCH 5K, or Alabama Credit Union 1 Mile Fun Run.  Runners will self seed in start corrals based on the expected finish times they provide.  The runners around you should be running a similar pace to you.

We encourage you to invite friends and family to cheer you on along the course, but they are only allowed to run with you if they are registered runners. Per USA Track & Field rules, elements that could impede the safety of runners, such as bikes, skates, skateboards and pets on the course, are not allowed. The safety of our runners is our number one priority. By signing or clicking ’I Accept’ on any registration race waiver, you are agreeing to abide by the Rules of Competition.

Yes, music devices with headphones are permitted to use on the course; however, participants must be alert to their surroundings at all times and must pay attention to important announcements made at the start line and on the course.
