🏅 Top finishers in each age group (and overall!) will snag some awesome awards, so bring that competitive spirit.
👟 Not a runner? No problem! The 1 Mile Stroll is flat, fun, and stroller-friendly — perfect for all ages and fitness levels.
👶 And for the little ones? Don’t miss the FREE Children’s Churro Chase — a short, sweet dash where every kiddo gets a churro at the finish. Yes, a churro. 😋
💚 Best part? All proceeds support Hope Pregnancy Resource Center, so you’re running (or strolling, or churro-chasing) for a great cause.
So gather your crew, bring your appetite, and let’s TACO ‘BOUT FUN!

Race Location
About This Sport
From Endurance Grid's Founder
Endurance Grid is here to help you understand the sport, decide if it's the right fit, and learn how to prepare. For course distances, logistics, and race-day specifics, always defer to the race organizer's event page.
The 10K is the distance where running stops feeling like a starting point and starts feeling like a sport. Long enough to require a real training block. Short enough that race day is fully manageable for a first-timer who's put in the work.
Race day energy at a 10K is community at its best — strangers cheering you by name, people moving toward the same goal, an atmosphere that solo training can't replicate. It's fast enough that you'll spend the whole race pushing rather than managing your effort.
This is also the distance that builds the base for everything else. Most athletes who go on to run half marathons, do triathlons, or compete in HYROX started here. What you need: running shoes fitted to your stride, a training plan, and the race on your calendar. The registration is what makes the deadline real.
How long to train: 4–8 weeks for most fitness levels.
Running
From 5K to marathon, running races are the most accessible entry point into endurance sport. There's a distance for every fitness level and a community at every start line.
