🍔Hey Houston...the run/walk event you’ve dreamed about has finally arrived!

Get ready for a first-of-its-kind celebration where flavor meets fitness and running never tasted so good! We’re celebrating 75 years of Whataburger in a big way, and you’re invited to join the fun on Saturday, November 8th and Sunday, November 9th for two mornings packed with orange-and-white striped fun, iconic officially licensed race swag, and unforgettable Whataburger vibes—just like you like it.

Whether you're running, walking (or just in it for the swag), this experience is serving up a deliciously fun time for the whole family. Start your morning strong, move your way through a flat and fast, out-and-back course on Park Row Drive at the Addicks Park and Ride, right off of I-10 in the Energy Corridor District, just a short drive from the Houston Inner Loop and West Houston suburbs, and finish with a delicious side of celebration.

This experience is limited to 2,000 participants each event day, and with Whataburger fans from all over ready to join the fun, spots are sure to disappear fast. Can’t make it to Houston? Join our national virtual run and celebrate Whataburger fandom wherever you are, honoring your hometown Whataburger.

✨Don’t miss your chance to run for the love of burgers, community, and a whole lot of fun. Grab your Spicy Ketchup and let’s go! Register now and be part of this Whataburger celebration!

Join us for the 16th Annual Rudolph 5k Fun Run, Dasher 10k and Cupid 1k starting at our new location, Bendwood Park, and running through the area neighborhoods while enjoying all the Christmas Decorations. We welcome all ages and runner speeds, walkers, joggers, strollers and all those wanting to have. This year we have moved our fun run to Bendwood Park located just around the corner at 12700 Kimberly Park which offers more for the kids to do and easier parking. We will have the same route outside of a 1/2 mile, but all distances have been confirmed.

Smile for the camera as we judge to see who has the best Christmas costume and win a great gift card. Enjoy pictures with Santa Claus and special treats after the fun run including mimosas and much more. All registered athletes will receive a medal and more.

1k Cupid Run starts at 7:40am followed by the 10k Dasher Run at 8am and Rudolph 5k Run at 8:05am.

We look forward to seeing you this year!
