Organiser's Description
PRIDE 5K EVENT INFO:
Get ready for a vibrant, high-energy race experience at the Pride 5K & 1 Mile Fun Run! This celebration is all about community, inclusivity, and showing your colors with pride. Whether you're racing for a personal best or enjoying a fun walk with friends and family, this event promises an unforgettable experience full of joy and movement sparkles
ENGLISH: JOIN US FOR THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY'S FIRST EVER PRIDE 5K! HOSTED BY THE RGV QUEER RUN CLUB, THE PROCEEDS OF THIS RACE WILL BENEFIT SOUTH TEXAS EQUALITY PROJECT (STEP).
The Pride 5K is more than a race. Its a declaration of love and solidarity for the LGBTQ community. Its a space we've built for ourselves and for each other rooted in the belief that everyone deserves to be seen and supported. For many queer and trans people, existing in the world as our authentic selves can feel unsafe, and running together changes that. We are part of the Rio Grande Valley, and we deserve to enjoy its trails, nature, and public spaces with pride and joy.
This is our home. This is our Valley, too.
To mark the one year anniversary of our run club, we return to where it all started: at the Mission Hike and Bike Trails. Join us for this historic event on Saturday, June 27, 2026, to celebrate our Pride!
This is a timed event by Puro 9:56 Racing. Participants are encouraged to go at their own best pace by running, jogging, or walking. All registered participants will receive a T-Shirt and medal. The top three winners of each gender category (female, nonbinary, male) will be recognized with an additional medal.
ESPA~NOL: !'UNETE A NOSOTROS EN LA PRIMERA CARRERA PRIDE 5K DEL VALLE DEL R'IO GRANDE! ORGANIZADA POR EL RGV QUEER RUN CLUB, LOS BENEFICIOS DE ESTA CARRERA SE DESTINAR'AN A SOUTH TEXAS EQUALITY PROJECT (STEP).
Pride 5K es m'as que una carrera. Es una declaraci'on de amor y solidaridad con la comunidad LGBTQ. Es un espacio que hemos creado para nosotros mismos y para los dem'as, basado en la convicci'on de que todos merecemos vivir aut'enticamente y apoyados. Para muchas personas queer y trans, vivir en el mundo siendo nosotros mismos puede causar inseguridad y miedo, y correr juntos cambia eso. Somos parte del Valle del R'io Grande y merecemos disfrutar de sus senderos, su naturaleza y sus espacios p'ublicos con orgullo y alegr'ia.
Este es nuestro hogar. Este es tambi'en nuestro Valle.
Para conmemorar el primer aniversario de nuestro club de corredores, volvemos al lugar donde todo comenz'o: Mission Hike and Bike Trails. !'Unete a nosotros en este evento hist'orico el s'abado 27 de junio de 2026 para celebrar nuestro Orgullo!
Este es un evento cronometrado por Puro 9:56 Racing. Animamos a todos los participantes a ir a su propio ritmo, ya sea corriendo, trotando o caminando. Todos los participantes inscritos recibir'an una camiseta y una medalla. Los tres primeros clasificados de cada categor'ia de g'enero (mujeres, no binario, hombres) ser'an reconocidos con una medalla adicional.
