This year, participants will enjoy new 10K race and 5K fun run/walk courses that begins in the heart of downtown and continues down the scenic Allen Parkway. Runners and walkers will experience plenty of Texas hoopla along the racecourse as they kick off the HLSR Parade in downtown Houston.
The Rodeo Run raises scholarship funds for Texas youth. Since 1988, ConocoPhillips has donated all Rodeo Run entry fees to the HLSR Educational Fund, totaling $3.3 million to date. Through these donations, the Rodeo Run has helped make college dreams a reality for Texas high school students. Last year, a record 15,000 participants took part in the Rodeo Run, generating a record $400,000 for college scholarships.
