Red, White and Blue Half Marathon - Houston

Gear up for a memorable summer run at the Red, White and Blue Half Marathon in Houston, TX, taking place on June 28, 2026. Hosted by the experienced Bigfoot Running Company, this event promises a vibrant, family-friendly atmosphere that welcomes runners of all ages and abilities. Participants can choose their challenge from a Kids Dash (50M), 2-mile, 4-mile, 8-mile, or the flagship 13.1-mile half marathon, all starting at 7:00 am CDT.

The race unfolds through the scenic Brazos River Park in Sugar Land, offering a beautiful, fast, and flat course. Runners will journey along winding, tree-lined trails, open fields, and greenbelts, experiencing a varied terrain of paved paths, crushed granite, and occasional dirt sections. Aid stations along the route provide refreshing bottled water and snacks to keep you fueled, supported by enthusiastic volunteers. Typical race day conditions for late June in Houston feature warm temperatures, with highs around 92°F and lows near 76°F, and a 16% chance of precipitation, so runners should prepare for potential humidity.

Beyond the challenge, the Red, White and Blue Half Marathon offers unique rewards and a lively post-race celebration. All finishers receive a super comfy race T-shirt and a unique Texas-themed medal to commemorate their achievement. Top finishers in the 4-mile, 8-mile, and half marathon distances will also vie for the coveted Bigfoot trophy. The festivities continue at the race rally tent, complete with tasty snacks, refreshments, and live music spun by DJ Sasquatch, ensuring a celebratory end to your patriotic run.
