Entry is $45 now and rises to $50 after Nov 1, 2026, so registering before then saves $5.
A Valentine's-themed race in Houston with both a shorter and longer distance option. The name and the holiday do most of the talking here, and the course draws people who want to mark the occasion with a run rather than a restaurant reservation. Friends and families tend to show up together, which shapes the mood of the morning.
