Where is RISE Run?

We are hosting our first ever RISE Run in San Marcos, TX. San Marcos is located just south of Austin, TX. Come join us for the Run and stay for an incredible weekend in the Texas Hill Country!

Which airport should I fly into?

Do I have to register to participate in RISE Run?

All runners are required to register prior to the Run. But if running is not your thing, come join our Cheer Squad or be a Volunteer. For more information, email readytorise@thehollisco.com

Do I have to be a runner to go to the Retreat or Rally?

Heck no friend! If you’re running and your cheer squad isn’t but they want to hit up that retreat with you, go for it. Y’all are welcome to buy tickets to whichever part of the weekend makes sense to you. (With every group there must be at least one runner. If you have guests, you will need to purchase a ticket for them.)

Do I need to be an experienced runner to sign up?

Absolutely not! RISE Run is all about celebrating the blessing of getting to move your body. No matter what shape, age, or stage you are at in your fitness journey. If walking is your jam or running is what fuels your soul, RISE Run is an all-fitness level community event. RISE Run is about becoming the best version of you, together.

How do I train for RISE Run?

There are a ton of resources online that will help you train for free but if you want our training schedule it’s included with your race ticket and will be sent out in June.

Are there limited tickets available?

To ensure every runner has the best experience, we have limited spots available for each route. So make sure you register today!

Are there military or first responder discounts?

All active duty members, veterans, military spouses, and first responders receive a 20% discount on their route of choice. Please email our Customer Service team at readytorise@thehollisco.com on how to receive that discount.

Are animals permitted during the Run?

Man, we love doggos too but for safety reasons we’re not allowed to have any dogs (or cats or birds or fish) on the route. The only exception being for service animals. 

What are staging groups?

Staging groups are assigned to make sure those who are at the same running level are grouped together at the starting line. During registration, there will be a spot for you to choose your estimated finishing time. If this is your first time running that distance, no worries, just make your best guess at where you are now.

Will the Run be timed?

RISE Run is not a competition and there will be no awards given for time or place. However, we know we have a lot of goal getters out there so your individual time will be tracked, recorded, and sent to you post race.

Will the run be cancelled if there’s bad weather?

We sure hope not, but will notify you immediately of any cancellation in the case of inclement weather. RISE Run officials will make a decision on whether or not to cancel/resume based on course and runner safety.
