Sugar Land Half Marathon, 10K, and Mile
The event takes place on Sunday, October 11, 2026, at Smart Financial Centre in Sugar Land, Texas. It offers three race distances:
- Half marathon
- 10K
- Mile
This edition features course changes that remove previous out-and-back segments. Both race distances use a true loop course, with an earlier extension along Austin Parkway that eliminated the former out-and-back on Commonwealth for the half. The 10K no longer uses the north-end parking lot out-and-back at the start. The finish route was redesigned to bring runners in from behind the building for a direct finish; with the new routing, parking remains fully accessible once the race begins.
Course characteristics include mostly flat terrain, a layout with almost all right turns, and multiple fully stocked hydration and cheer stations along the way. The venue offers abundant parking and a convenient start and finish area. A post-race celebration follows the finish and includes a one-of-a-kind medal, food, music, and awards.
The event is part of the 2026 Lone Star Race Series as Race number two. Houston Methodist Orthopedics and Sports Medicine is the title sponsor. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
