Event Description
Get off the couch and hit the ground running (or walking) before the holidays sneak up on us and register for a race you can run in air conditioning or under the stars! This Virtual Risher 5K Fun Run may be completed anywhere, anytime between Wednesday, November 11th and Sunday, November 15th. Strolls with the family dog, pavement runs with the stroller, and treadmill jogs while watching TV are all acceptable! There is no cost to register or participate, but for just $15 during early registration you will receive a traditional race t-shirt and swag bag of goodies. Whether you pay or not, all registered participants will be eligible for raffle prizes. Forget about the race day jitters, it’s all about you!
Need help creating a 5k route? Participants can either run a designated 5K course at a Risher managed facility or create their own path and run anywhere! This is a virtual event and is open to all participants.

For just $15 participants will receive a commemorative Risher 5K T-shirt or tank top, digital-bib, swag bag full of goodies, entry for raffle prizes, and will benefit Texas Parks and Wildlife Foundation. However, you can register for free and only be eligible for the raffle prizes.

We believe the outdoors provide a great opportunity to improve a person's overall heath and well being. During the pandemic, Texas parks and the outdoors have been a safe place for many to visit and are now seeing higher than usual traffic. We want to give back to Texas Parks and Wildlife by providing resources to accommodate the additional visitors who have found a new love in the great outdoors.
