Close the Loop 5K - Breast Reconstruction Awareness
The Close the Loop 5K is scheduled for October 16, 2026, at Buffalo Bayou Park in Houston, Texas. This is the ninth annual edition of an event that is offered in both in-person and virtual formats and is organized to raise awareness about breast reconstruction options available to women after mastectomy.
The event includes multiple registration options: in-person run/walk, a virtual 5K, and a lower-option registration that does not include a t-shirt or medal. Standard registrations include a race t-shirt and a participation medal. Participants may register as individuals, join an existing team with no team size limit, or register as a team captain and start a team.
Registration opens on May 20, 2026 and closes on August 11, 2026. The listed registration fee is $75. Profits from the event are awarded to organizations focused on awareness and assistance for women affected by breast cancer or pursuing breast reconstruction, and support charitable care and research. The Breast Reconstruction Awareness Program of The Plastic Surgery Foundation has previously allocated 188 grants totaling over $2 million in awards. The event also offers a referral reward program that provides a $40 refund after five successful referrals. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
