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.

The LifeGift 2nd Chance Run honors organ, eye, and tissue donors in 109 Texas counties in North, Southeast, and West Texas.

While celebrating the lives saved and offering hope to those still waiting, the event raises awareness of the need for organ, eye, and tissue donation across the state.

For more than 25 years, the Alexandria Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, has supported scholarships and educational initiatives across the greater Houston area. Each year, the ‘06K Race extends that mission through charitable giving. In 2026, proceeds will support local Autism nonprofits Hope for Three and Seensory and Me Ministries, organizations dedicated to serving individuals with Autism and their families through advocacy, education, and inclusive programming.

The Peyton Irwin Foundation is having its 5th annual run/walk….a great race for an even greater cause!!   Peyton loved pineapples, therefore leading us to name this run the Pineapple Run.   Join us as we bring awareness to the dangers of distracted driving.
