The Texas Med Run invites runners and walkers of all ages to hit the streets of Houston, TX, on Saturday, February 21, 2026, for its 23rd annual event. Offering a 10K and 5K, along with a 5K walk and a Kids 1K, this race is celebrated for its vibrant community spirit and dedication to a vital cause. Participants can anticipate pleasant race day conditions, with typical February highs around 69°F and lows near 51°F, and only a 10% chance of precipitation, creating an ideal climate for personal bests or an enjoyable family outing.

The course is a flat, road race winding through the bustling Texas Medical Center, providing an urban landscape for your run. While specifics on scenery and elevation aren't detailed, the "road" course type suggests a generally fast and accessible route for all skill levels. The start and finish lines are located on Cambridge Street, just north of South MacGregor Way, with pre and post-race festivities centered at 1115 N MacGregor Way, Houston, TX.

What truly sets the Texas Med Run apart is its profound impact beyond the finish line. Hosted by the Harris County Hospital District Foundation, proceeds directly benefit the innovative Food Farmacy Program. This initiative tackles food insecurity and chronic conditions by providing nutritious food, personalized care coordination, and tailored nutrition education to patients, fostering better health outcomes for the community. Running the Texas Med Run is more than just a race; it's an opportunity to contribute to transforming healthcare through the power of nutrition.
