Texas Tough 5k, 10k & 10 Mile

Get ready for a true Texas challenge in the heart of Helotes! This exciting community race will showcase the natural beauty and rolling terrain the area is known for—delivering the signature E-Dragon toughness with hills, scenic views, and a course that will test your grit from start to finish.

Choose your distance with three race options: the Texas Tough 10 Miler, 10K, or 5K. Each course is designed to challenge runners of all levels, featuring elevation that pushes you to your limits and makes every finish line moment earned.

Participants who pre-register will receive a high-quality sublimated running shirt, and all runners will have the opportunity to earn one of E-Dragon’s signature custom finisher medals—crafted each year to stand out. The 10 Miler will also include a premium singlet option for those looking to elevate their race-day experience.

Race day will be fully supported with professional chip timing for the 5K and 10K, organized course management, on-site restrooms, and a high-energy finish line atmosphere with music and live announcing to celebrate every runner. Post-race, participants can enjoy breakfast tacos and coffee as they recover and connect with the community.

With age group awards, overall and masters recognition, flexible refund and virtual race options, and a strong “by runners, for runners” approach, this event is designed to deliver a high-quality experience for everyone involved. Whether you’re chasing a personal best or taking on the hills for the first time, Helotes is ready to deliver.
