About the Rodeo Stampede - Houston
The course runs through parks and greenbelts in Houston, so the surroundings feel green and open rather than urban. Several distance options mean the field is a mix of people chasing a personal best and others out for the experience. The western theme runs all the way through, from the costume contest judged by crowd noise to a Bigfoot character roaming the start and finish area.
The finish area has a rally tent with snacks and refreshments, a DJ announcing every finisher by name, and live awards for overall and age group winners. A kids dash is part of the morning, with its own finish-line moment. Water is available at stations out on the course.

The Rodeo Stampede - Houston has been held every year since at least 2025. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Oct 25, 2026.
