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.

5k/10k/15k registration includes a custom bib, designer shirt, and a custom finisher medal!
1 Mile registration is untimed and includes a custom bib, designer shirt, and a custom finisher medal! The kid’s dash is a fun, untimed dash for our kiddos ages 10 and under. Registration includes a mini bib, youth-sized shirt, and a specifically crafted medal for our kids’ dash event! (If your child wants to run the kid’s dash, and doesn’t want the SWAG, they are welcome to run with us on race day for free!)

Apollo 11 was the spaceflight that landed mission commander Neil Armstrong and pilot Buzz Aldrin, both American, on the lunar module Eagle on July 20, 1969, at 20:17 UTC. Armstrong became the first person to step onto the lunar surface six hours after landing on July 21 at 02:56:15 UTC; Aldrin joined him about 20 minutes later. Michael Collins piloted the command module Columbia alone in lunar orbit while they were on the Moon’s surface. [1]

About This Event: the Lunar Landing 5K is a great way to celebrate one of mankind’s greatest accomplishments.
