48th Annual Lone Star Stampede
The Lone Star Stampede is a long-standing Houston tradition hosted by the Texas Exes Houston Chapter. This community event takes place at Brazos River Park in Sugar Land, Texas. It brings together runners, walkers, and supporters for a day of fitness and community engagement.
The event features several race distances and participation options:
- 10K Run
- 5K Run
- Kids 1K Fun Run
- 10K Virtual Run
- 5K Virtual Run
The race serves as a fundraiser for the Texas Exes Houston Chapter, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Proceeds from the event are used to fund scholarships for students from the Houston area who are attending The University of Texas at Austin.
Participants can compete for various accolades, including awards for overall male and female champions in the 10K and 5K categories. Awards are also presented to the top three finishers in each age group division. Additionally, a Spirit Award is given to the participant with the most creative display of burnt orange attire. The event often includes supplemental activities such as raffles with prizes from local sponsors. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
