Running and Rock ‘n’ Roll in the Alamo City
Elite Racing, a sports marketing management company, announced on October 8th that they selected the city of San Antonio for the next Rock ‘n’ Roll marathon and 1/2 marathon.
This is exciting news! This is the same company that organizes all the Rock ‘n’ Roll marathons including cities such as San Diego, Phoenix, and Virginia Beach. The current San Antonio Marathon, “Marathon of the Americas,” has been organized locally so very little marketing was done to promote the event. Elite Racing does extensive marketing for these Rock ‘n’ Roll marathons so the event is very well organized, promoted and something to rock out to. The event will host 70 live bands!
I am thrilled about this event. This marathon will attract many tourists into San Antonio. I was planning on running the Marine Corps marathon in Washington DC next year but I am might opt to stay in San Antonio now. We will see!
