From the Organizer
THE ENERGY CITY HALF MARATHON/10K/5K/1K, IN IT'S 12TH YEAR, IS A DESTINATION EVENT FOR RUNNERS IN WEST TEXAS AND SURROUNDING STATES. HISTORICALLY, THE RACE ATTRACTED OVER 1,100 RUNNERS, AND IN 2026 WE AIM TO BREAK THAT RECORD.
THE ENERGY CITY EVENT IS HOSTED BY, AND FOR THE BENEFIT OF, THE CAMRON STOTTS FOUNDATION (A 501c3 ORGANIZATION BASED IN MIDLAND TEXAS). CAMRON BEGAN THE RACE IN 2015 TO BENEFIT RESTORATION FARM, A MINISTRY HE FOUNDED WITH HIS WIFE JAMI AND THEIR FOUR CHILDREN. IN 2018, CAMRON LOST HIS LIFE AT THE HANDS OF A DRUNK DRIVER WHILE CYCLING NEAR HIS HOME.
THE MISSION OF THE CS FOUNDATION IS TO HONOR THE MEMORY AND LEGACY OF CAMRON STOTTS, WHO TIRELESSLY AND SELFLESSLY SERVED OTHERS, BY CARRYING ON HIS SPIRIT AND SUPPORTING CAUSES NEAR TO HIS HEART. PROCEEDS RAISED WILL BE USED TO MAKE GRANTS TO LOCAL CHARITIES THAT ALIGN WITH CAMRON'S BELIEF THAT LIVES CAN BE INTENTIONALLY LIVED AND, WITH EFFORT, TRANSFORMED.
