How fast is it?

Slower than most Texas 5Ks

The fastest quarter of the 2026 5K field finished under 34:44, against 30:02 in a typical Texas 5K, so times here run 16 percent slower.

Compares the fastest quarter of each field, so walkers and first-timers do not skew it. It reflects the course and the field together: a flat course, cool weather, or a competitive crowd all make times faster.

Typical race-day weather

Around February 28 the day usually runs from 56°F at dawn to 76°F in the afternoon, with measurable rain on about 16% of days. Cold snaps dip to 37°F and hot years reach 82°F.

Based on 76 days within a week of the date over the last 5 years, from historical weather for the start area. Not a forecast.
