Hey, Texas! Are You Ready to run for freedom?
 

This summer, gear up for the Texas Red, White and Blue Half Marathon—the most exhilarating race to hit the Lone Star State! Hosted by Bigfoot Running Company, this event will take you on a breathtaking journey through Texas’ stunning trails, showcasing all the natural beauty our state has to offer.

This year marks the 25th anniversary of September 11, 2001. The 9/11 Heroes Run 5K welcomes runners, ruckers, and walkers of all ages and fitness levels to honor the heroes of that day and those who stepped up to serve in the wars that followed. These annual events are critical to helping Americans fulfill a promise to never forget and share the significance of that day with future generations.

A Great Option for a Trail Race

Review of Wildflower Trail Run

This race is so much fun and a great option for anyone who wants to try out a trail race. There are so many different options for distances, and it’s not too far from Houston. It’s a great time!

Cue the suspense music… it’s time to hit the course, Shark Week style! This high-energy, family-friendly race is splashing onto the scene with ocean vibes, bold fun, and just the right amount of bite.

Hosted by Bigfoot Running Company, Shark Week is where serious miles meet jawsome race-day excitement. Whether you’re cruising the 1 Mile or hunting down a 10K PR, you’ll cross the finish line feeling like the apex runner of the day.

This is our nighttime party trail run just West of Houston at Stephen F. Austin State Park! The trails are wide and mainly gravel/dirt with a few quick elevation changes but a great trail run for beginners to advanced. 

​All runners will need both a light and hydration device as mandatory equipment. The trail will be marked with reflectors and ribbons. We are a cupless race so you must carry your own bottle/flask. Follow park instructions for parking along the right side of the park road, starting at the group dining hall event area and filling back from there. 

The group dining hall is where all the action happens; packet pickup, start/finish, spectator hang-out lawn with runners personal area, and our main aid station. A second water refill will be available at halfway at the road crossing. Extra lights and costumes are encouraged! Sunset is at 7:30 PM.

The 29th Annual Sprint for Life 5K and Sprint for Sprouts Kids’ Run will be held near the campus of MD Anderson Cancer Center on May 9, 2026.  Make a difference in the fight against ovarian cancer!

Founded in 1998, Sprint for Life has two missions:  to raise awareness and research funds for ovarian cancer. Hosted by The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Sprint for Life has raised more than $5.8 million for the Blanton-Davis Ovarian Cancer Research Program, one of the world’s leading efforts dedicated to ovarian cancer research.  Funding has allowed researchers to develop new clinical trials, understand the biology of ovarian cancer and develop new therapies for the disease.

THIS IS NOT YOUR AVERAGE 5K….This high-energy 5K team challenge puts three-person teams head-to-head against others in timed competition where strength, wit, and teamwork matter as much as speed. Teams race in multiple competitive heats, completing 3 laps around the 1.05 mile course. At the end of every lap, teams face a physical or mental challenge that must be completed before moving on. See the Race Info section for more information.

Push through fatigue. Rely on your teammates. Stay sharp under pressure. Every decision, every rep, every step counts. Whether you’re chasing the podium or testing your limits, this challenge demands focus, resilience, and unity. Assemble your Squad. Run hard. Execute the challenges. Advance as one!
