The Houston Heights Fun Run is an annual event hosted by the Houston Heights Association, providing both in-person and virtual participation options. It has been a staple in the community since 1985, never missing a single year. Participants can enjoy running at their own pace with a route carved through the neighborhood, and choose between varying courses tailored to different fitness goals. The in-person event ensures a safe experience with guidelines, while the virtual event allows flexibility. Following the race, celebrants can look forward to a lively after-party at Marmion Park with live music, awards, and local vendors. Proceeds benefit community projects, supporting beautification, restoration, and more.
