Plan the visit
Separate Saturday's 5K from Sunday's distance races
The organizer's 2027 schedule places the We Are Houston 5K on Saturday, January 16, and the Chevron Houston Marathon and Aramco Houston Half Marathon on Sunday, January 17. Texas Defined models those race days separately so the public schedule and Event schema stay precise.
Use downtown transit and race guidance
The organizer publishes downtown transportation guidance and recommends Houston METRORail for race-day movement. Check the current course, road-closure and spectator information before relying on normal downtown driving patterns.
Build packet pickup into arrival timing
The official expo and packet-pickup schedule runs Friday and Saturday at the George R. Brown Convention Center. Marathon and half-marathon participants should confirm the current pickup requirements before race weekend.
