Lace Up For Lisa

Lace Up For Lisa is held on October 24, 2026 in Burleson, Texas, with the 5K fun run starting at 8:30 a.m. The event offers one distance and bills it as a fun run, which sets expectations honestly: the morning is built around taking part rather than around competition. Burleson sits just south of Fort Worth, so it is a short trip from most of the metroplex.

A fun-run framing does not stop you from racing it. If you want a hard 5K, warm up for 15 minutes, start at a pace you can defend, and spend what is left over the final half mile. If you would rather share the morning with a group, walk-run it in intervals — four minutes of easy running, one minute walking — and you will finish comfortably and evenly.
