Event details

The App Run in Houston, United States, takes place on May 10, 2026. The local meeting place is Memorial Park Running Center. The event is part of the Wings for Life World Run and lists local and global partners including Trail Racing Over Texas, Hardloop Endurance, Adidas and Audi.

Race format and features

The event uses a mobile app for participation. Instructions shown include downloading the app, completing a checklist and running with the app. The race follows the Wings for Life World Run format: a moving "Catcher Car" progressively catches participants and determines when each participant finishes; finishing distance therefore varies by runner.

Event information also notes accessibility for wheelchair participants. Local set up mentions refreshment stations, timing and race numbers. The event page notes that participant contributions support efforts to help find a cure.
