Today on HalfRuns: Urban Cow results, 5 new 2027 races

Urban Cow pulled double duty today. The Urban Cow Half Marathon in Sacramento just landed 2,607 finishers from 2026 — the largest field in today's results pull by nearly a thousand — and its 2027 edition is already loaded on the calendar for September 26. Same race, two big reasons to click.

Fresh results: ~5,740 rows, five races

Today's pull spans five races and roughly 5,740 result rows, from a 64-finisher Michigan half to a 2,607-runner California block party. Here's everything that just went live:

The pattern: two races — Urban Cow and Betsy Farris — account for about 4,136 of those 5,740 rows. That's 72 percent of today's haul sitting in Sacramento and Columbia, with three small-town fields rounding out the rest. Check your name against the small ones especially; in a 64-finisher race, you're practically guaranteed a mention.

Five new races on the 2027 calendar

All five additions today are 2027 races, and they cluster hard into late summer:

Four of the five land inside a ten-week window from mid-July to late September, and the final three stack up on three consecutive weekends in September. If you're building a fall 2027 slate, Sacramento is now sitting on it twice — as a 2026 result and a 2027 race day.

New photos

Six race galleries got curated today, including a Deseret News Classic half in Salt Lake City, the Brooks Orca Half Marathon in Seattle, and both Chippewa Falls races on the same day — the YMCA/Senn Blacktop Pure Water Days Races and the Leinenkugel's Pure Water Days Races.
