Event Overview
The Wiener Run is a springtime community event held at East Metro Park in Manor, Texas. This sports gathering features a variety of running distances alongside a barbecue-themed celebration. The event supports local dog rescue operations through partnerships and the collection of pet supplies such as food, toys, and treats.
Participants can expect a course consisting of mixed surfaces, including pavement, crushed granite, and grass paths. As the race takes place in a public park, the route is shared with other park users. On-site features include aid stations located throughout the course, a live DJ, and finish line announcements.
