Katy Half Marathon & 5K presented by Houston Methodist

Katy Half Marathon & 5K presented by Houston Methodist is held in Katy, Texas, on February 7, 2027. The half marathon (13.1 miles), the 5K and a kids 1K all start at 7 a.m.

Katy sits west of Houston, which makes this a convenient early season half for runners across the metro area and a sensible checkpoint if a spring marathon is on your calendar. Around twelve weeks of consistent running with one long run each week takes most people to 13.1 in shape to race rather than merely survive; if your build has been shorter, treat the day as a long run with company. The 5K and the kids 1K go off at the same time, so a family can enter three different races and still finish together.
