Get ready for an unforgettable day of community and fun at the Steps for Students 5K, taking place on Saturday, February 14, 2026, in the vibrant city of Houston, Harris. This annual event is dedicated to supporting the 55 Catholic schools within the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston, making it a meaningful occasion for families and friends to come together. Participants can look forward to a festive Sunrise Mass, an exciting sanctioned 5K race, and a lively post-race party in the Catholic School Village.

In 2024, nearly 9,000 enthusiastic runners and supporters gathered, helping to raise an impressive $800,000 to address the unique needs of each school. There are plenty of ways to get involved, whether you choose to register for the race, become a fundraising champion for your school, or simply enjoy the festivities in the Catholic School Village. You can even opt for the Hit Snooze for Students program, allowing you to run at your own pace. Join us for this incredible celebration and be part of a tradition that strengthens our community while having a blast on race day!
