Event Information

This year as we celebrate Hermann Park's centennial, Hermann Park Conservancy is excited to host the eleventh annual Run in the Park.  The scenic 5K course will circle around our beautiful Park under the historic live oaks. The Run consists of a 5K run/walk, a 1K kids' fun run, and post-race party in Molly Ann Smith Plaza. 

Whether you are a weekend jogger, competitive runner, or just like to walk with friends and family, Run in the Park is an event you do not want to miss! Grab your friends and family and sign up now for a fun-filled morning in Hermann Park!

DIRECTIONS/PARKING

You may enter Hermann Park at Montrose and Main streets near the Mecom Fountain and continue towards the Sam Houston Monument onto Hermann Park Drive. Parking is available in all lots inside the Park but main parking is in the big lot in front of the Houston Zoo. You can also ride METRORail to the Park. Molly Ann Smith Plaza is located between the Jones Reflection Pool and McGovern Lake on the west side of Miller Outdoor Theatre. Look for the Pioneer Monument (the tall obelisk). 

*The 5K RUN will be chip timed and awards will be distributed according to gender and age groups (Overall Male & Female, 19&Under, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70+).  

**If you do not wish to participate in the timed event, please sign up for the walk.  You can still run, but you will not receive a timing chip.

T-shirts -- Cotton race-specific T-shirts are guaranteed to all pre-registered participants.   

Course Description -- The race begins and ends in Hermann Park at the Molly Ann Smith Plaza between McGovern Lake and the Jones Reflection Pool.
