What a way to wrap up summer, Houston! 🍉☀️

We had an incredible turnout at Watermelon Dash this past weekend, and we can’t thank you enough for showing up for us all summer long. From Lemonade Dash to Popsicle Dash to Watermelon Dash, Houston really showed up for the 2026 Summer Dash Series!

That officially wraps up our Houston Summer Dash season, and we can confidently say this was our BEST HRC SUMMER YET! 🧡

We love this running community and everyone who raced, volunteered, cheered, and spent their summer miles with us. Now, we’re ready to trade those summer miles for fall race season. 👀🍂

Make sure you’re following us to get all the scoop on what’s coming for the rest of 2026. We can’t wait to keep racing with you, Houston! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️
