How do I find my run/walk results?
Visit the 'Results' tab on this site for the entire listing of award winners from each year. Results are posted shortly after the conclusion of each year's event. If you do not see your time on the results it is likely because of two reasons: 1. You chose to remain anonymous in the results when you registered 2. You did not go through either the start or finish line with your bib on. If you believe there is an error with your results, please contact us for assistance with a resolution.
Are there any run 'rules'?
When running, it's important to keep in mind the 'Rules of the Road'. Always stay to the far right of the walking trail and pass on the left when possible. Since Memorial Park will be open during the event, be mindful of people coming from the opposite direction. If running in a group, limit yourselves to no more than two abreast to prevent any collisions on the trail. Be considerate of other park patrons and remember that this is a friendly competition. Safety should always be a top priority! While headphones are not prohibited, it is recommended to stay aware and connected with your surroundings during the race.
You mentioned company interaction...?
After you have completed your 5K, the fun continues! Swing by our post run hospitality village for refreshments, including complimentary food from H-E-B and Saint Arnold beer/cider for 21+ participants. You'll also be able to interact with other companies from across Houston. The post run hospitality village will remain open until 7:30pm each event day. No pets allowed.

All registrations are non-refundable and non-transferable. Once we receive and accept your entry, you will not receive a refund. If your registration was paid for in full by your company, you may request to cancel your registration by having your team captain contact us prior to October 10th.

What are the history of Corporate Runs around the country?
Corporate runs, or company-sponsored running events, have a relatively short history in the United States, dating back to the early 1980s. The first corporate run was held in 1977 in New York City and was known as the Manufacturer's Hanover Corporate Challenge. The success of the New York event inspired others, and corporate runs began to proliferate across the country.
