Event Description

Nothing brings joy like a good run.  So when in doubt, prance it out. Join us for the inaugural Run with Joy Half Marathon,  5K and 1K race on Saturday, April 8, 2023 in honor of our late friend Lawrence Joy who loved a good run and always had fun. While you run you will be serenaded by music along the out and back course on the North Diversion Channel in Albuquerque, NM.  You will start and end at Canteen Brewhouse and upon completion be greeted by balloons, beers (or root beers) and burritos.  Post run hang out and enjoy the day with us. Make new friends and share the joy. Each half marathon participant will receive a tank top or long sleeve shirt.  All participants will receive a metal pint glass with fill, slap bracelet, burrito and professional timing. Prizes will be awarded for first male and female, last person, oldest person, youngest person and best unicorn costume.  

Packet Pickup will be Friday, April 7th from 2-7PM at Canteen Brewhouse.  To help you carb load before the race we will offer $1 off pints with your race bib that evening.
