🍔 Hey Houston...the race everyone was talking about last year is back!
Get ready for the 2nd Annual WhataRun 5K/10K, where flavor meets fitness and running never tasted so good. After an incredible inaugural year that brought together thousands of runners, walkers, and Whataburger fans, we're turning up the fun once again on Saturday, November 7 and Sunday, November 8, 2026. Expect two mornings packed with orange-and-white striped excitement, iconic officially licensed race swag, and unforgettable Whataburger® vibes—just like you like it.

Start your morning strong on a flat and fast out-and-back course along Park Row Drive at the Addicks Park & Ride in Houston's Energy Corridor, then celebrate your finish with fellow Whataburger fans and a race-day experience unlike any other.
Each event day is limited to 2,500 participants, and if last year's demand was any indication, spots won't last long. Can't make it to Houston? Join our national virtual event and celebrate your love of Whataburger from anywhere in the country.
