Course Info:
These live Chrono timed races use disposable bib tags on USATF Certified courses benefitting the Brazos Valley Museum of Natural History.
There are two certified courses for the Stampede: a 5k and half marathon, that are open to all ages! The Half-Marathon course is gently rolling, scenic, relatively flat, fast, and takes participants through open country and past neighborhoods and parks. It has a downhill 2-mile finish, offers you a great chance for a PR, and a tune-up for marathons. The 5K follows the first 1.55 miles of the Half-Marathon course. Courses are out and back and offer a safe route well marked by Area Wide Protective. Cheer Stations will be along the route to encourage runners and walkers! The half marathon course starts at 7:30am, the 5k course starts at 7:45am, and both close at 11 am. Awards will be given to the first, second, and third places based on age divisions!
