Halloween Trick or Trot Run 5K/10K/13.1 HOUSTON

Halloween Trick or Trot Run 5K/10K/13.1 HOUSTON takes runners through the streets of Houston, Texas, on October 31, 2026. The half marathon (13.1 miles), the 10K, the 5K and a family one-mile fun run all start at 7:30 a.m. The annual event welcomes every level, and finishers pick up a runner shirt and a finisher medal.

Houston in late October is usually mild rather than cool, so start a notch slower than your goal pace and drink at every station on the half marathon. The 10K and 5K are short enough to attack from the gun if you would rather race than pace. Wave sizes are limited, a virtual option is open to anyone who cannot attend in person, and complimentary treats wait at the finish along with plenty of other runners to compare notes with.
