Tyler Run for Autism - 15th Annual
The Tyler Run for Autism takes place on April 11, 2026, in Tyler, Texas at Pollard UMC (3030 New Copeland Road, Tyler, TX 75701). The event includes three distances: a 1 mile family run, a 5K, and a 10K. It is the 15th annual edition, founded in 2012 to support local children with autism.
Organizers state the event is fully sponsored so that 100% of proceeds support children enrolled at the Treatment and Learning Center for Children with Autism. Proceeds are also used to help families cover therapy and medical expenses. Only paid registrants receive event shirts and swag bags; chip timing is provided for the 5K and 10K. Additional features noted by the organizers include finisher medals, overall and age group awards for 5K and 10K, a post-race vendor area, and a largest team award.
Course surface is described as mostly asphalt. Tyler Police, volunteers, directional signage, and other resources will be present on course for participant safety. Parking options are available in both parking lots and on nearby streets. Course maps and route details are maintained by the organizers for reference.
