San Antonio Veterans Day 5K Run/Walk

San Antonio Veterans Day 5K Run/Walk is held in San Antonio, Texas, on November 7, 2026. There is one format, a 5K (3.1 miles) that starts at 9:00 a.m. and is open to both runners and walkers, so a group can enter together and finish at whatever pace suits each person. The single distance and the mid-morning start keep the logistics simple, with no wave to sort out and no long wait after you arrive.

This is a road 5K, which makes it a good target if you are returning to racing or want a short, honest test of your current fitness. Build toward it with four to six weeks of easy running, one session of faster work such as five or six one-minute efforts, and a weekly run that goes a little longer than race distance so 3.1 miles never feels like the limit of your range.
