About the Weslaco Scholarship Foundation Scholar Stride 5k
The Scholar Stride starts and finishes at the Harlon Block Sports Complex in Weslaco. The race raises money for a local student scholarship, so the crowd around the start area tends to include families and school supporters alongside runners. There is a fun run option for younger kids, and local vendor booths set up near the finish.
Packet pickup is the evening before the race at a location announced closer to the event. The organizers ask everyone to arrive a bit early on race morning for parking and warm-up. Refreshments and a hydration station are at the finish, and a DJ keeps things moving throughout the morning.
