For more than 25 years, the Alexandria Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, has supported scholarships and educational initiatives across the greater Houston area. Each year, the ‘06K Race extends that mission through charitable giving. In 2026, proceeds will support local Autism nonprofits Hope for Three and Seensory and Me Ministries, organizations dedicated to serving individuals with Autism and their families through advocacy, education, and inclusive programming.

The ‘06K is more than a traditional 5K—we add an extra 1K in honor of the founding year of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. (1906). Participants can run or walk and be part of a meaningful experience that blends fitness, service, and celebration.

Participants Receive:

  • Numbered race bib
  • Commemorative finisher medal
  • Awards for top finishers
  • Course support from volunteers
  • Live DJ and race-day entertainment

With a high-energy atmosphere, community vendors, and anniversary-year surprises, this will be our largest and most memorable ‘06K yet.
