The IRONKIDS Fun Run offers young athletes the opportunity to feel the excitement of competition, while enjoying the outdoors and promoting healthy living. Each athlete receives a “Goodie Bag” with a race bib, shirt and a finisher medal.

This is the 57th running of the oldest race in Texas. You can boast on Sunday morning that you ran on the same track as Olympic Medalists Clayton Murphy and Matt Centrowitz and that you finished at the same time as Houston’s premier runners. Run as many RPMs (laps) as you please in 33:20. Pre-LP lbs. weigh-in for Clydesdales and Rubens. The racecourse is around a beautiful 400 meter bouncy synthetic track – no asphalt or concrete or potholes! Run at Rice University. By arriving early or staying late, the rare opportunity exists to actually watch some of Houston’s best runners.

The driving force behind everything we do is the children. We’ve seen the impact a childhood cancer diagnosis has on the entire family and we’re deeply committed to ensuring children affected by a cancer diagnosis have the opportunity to pursue their college dreams with scholarships, regardless of financial challenges. We are painstakingly aware that childhood cancer research continues to be under funded so we continue our mission to help fund Research and Awareness. Our actions brings our WHY to life.
