Rodeo Stampede - Galveston

Rodeo Stampede - Galveston is held in Galveston, Texas on February 27, 2027. The kids' dash goes first at 7:55 a.m., then the 1-mile run, the 5K (3.1 miles), the quarter marathon (6.55 miles) and the half marathon (13.1 miles) start together at 8:00 a.m. That quarter marathon is the distinctive entry, a touch longer than a 10K and short enough that you can race it hard without losing a week of training to recovery.

The half is the main event for anyone with a distance goal, and a 12-week build with one long run each week is the standard way in. If you are still working up to that, the 5K or the quarter marathon give you a race-day rehearsal at lower cost, and the kids' dash and mile mean the rest of the household has something to run too.
