We are very excited to see all of our friends back at The Pear Run! Whether you’re a runner, a sponsor or a volunteer, we’ve got a place for you.

Run Free. Run Proud.
Celebrate America’s independence with the July 4th Freedom Run — where every stride honors liberty, courage, and the spirit of freedom.
Whether you walk, jog, or race your heart out, come together to move for what unites us all.

There’s no equipment or setup, this is a pure run with our coordinators to support you in a warm, stress-free setting!

Start and finish at Galveston’s R.A. Apffel East Beach Park. Run entirely on sand, the Sand Crab is an adventure under the stars on a beautiful Galveston Beach at night! All races are chip timed including the Kid’s K. The Sand Crab starts on beautiful East Beach and runs west for 3.1 or 1.55 miles (depending on the event), then turns back to the finish. The course is marked with led lights. Runners are required to run with a flashlight or head lamp. The Kid’s K will start at 8 pm. Parents are welcome to run with kids free of charge. The 5K/10K will start at 8:30PM. The 5K run is very walker friendly with a 2hr cut off. The 10K is walkable but will share the 2 hr cut off. 10K runners must be at the 3.1 mile turnaround within 1 hour. There are 2 waterstops with sports drink and water hit 2X ea for the 10K and 1 hit 2X for the 5K.

This Cinco de Mayo, challenge yourself and celebrate resilience, community, and culture with the Cinco de Mayo Run Against All Odds! Whether you’re running for fun or for fitness, this event is all about pushing limits and embracing the spirit of overcoming obstacles—just like the holiday itself! There’s no equipment or setup, this is a pure run with our coordinators to support you in a warm, stress-free setting!

About the Run
This is about miles, not a 5K, not a fun run, and definitely no “K’s.” P2:3 Consulting Presents: The 2026 America Mile AMRAP Challenge in Baytown, TX. Built around one thing—the mile, repeated as many times as you can handle.

​On Independence Day from 2PM to 4PM, runners take on a 1-mile loop in a true AMRAP format (as many rounds as possible), pushing lap after lap through peak Texas heat. This isn’t about finishing a 5K, it’s about how many miles you can grind out when there are no shortcuts, no easing in, and no K’s to hide behind.

Come join us on Saturday, July 18, 2026, for a fantastic event in support of the Newspapers In Education program! Whether you prefer running, walking or jogging, the Press Run offers a certified 5K and 10K courses on Bay Street Park with stunning skyline views, plus an exciting Kids’ 1K in Texas City.

This event promises to be an unforgettable experience, and we can’t wait to see you there!

​The Summer Dash Series includes the Lemonade Dash, Popsicle Dash, and Watermelon Dash. All are great family events!

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.
