Giddy up, runners! Prepare for a true Texas-sized running adventure at the Rodeo Stampede - Dallas on March 8, 2026. This high-energy, family-friendly event invites athletes of all levels to kick up some dust across distances including a 1 Mile run, 3.11 Mile (5K), 6.55 Mile (Quarter Marathon), and 13.1 Mile (Half Marathon) in Dallas, TX.

This event is a celebration of Texas spirit, delivering an unforgettable day of racing and pure Lone Star fun.
