Join us on Saturday, August 29, 2026, for the Run for Aortic Health race at Trinity Park Pavilion #1. This event offers both a challenging 5K and an invigorating 10K run through Fort Worth's scenic landscapes. The day kicks off with registration and packet pickup starting at 6:15 AM sharp, giving participants ample time to prepare before the races begin. The 10K race will start promptly at 7:15 AM, followed by a 5K race beginning just fifteen minutes later at 7:30 AM. Participants can also join virtually from anywhere in the world on their preferred date and location. Virtual runners will receive an event T-shirt and medal after the physical race day via mail; please ensure your address is correct to avoid delays. The entry fee for both races is $40, while virtual participants pay $45, which includes a commemorative shirt and finisher's medal delivered post-race week. Early registration by August 17 guarantees T-shirt availability in the desired sizes (Women’s tank top, men’s sleeveless, unisex t-shirts, and youth options). Additional merchandise will be available on race day. Awards for both races include overall male and female winners as well as masters and grandmasters categories across various age groups. All finishers receive a finishing medal, while awards are given to the top three in each age group for both 10K and 5K runners/walkers. Early packet pickup is available at Fort Worth Running Company on Thursday, August 27th from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM or Friday, August 28th from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM at Dallas Running Company.
