Buffalo Stampede 5k Race and 1 Mile Fun Run | Brazos Valley Museum of Natural History
The 5K course is gently rolling, scenic, relatively flat, fast, and takes you through open country and past neighborhoods and parks. It has a downhill finish, and offers you a great chance for a PR and a tune-up for other races. Courses are out and back and offer a safe route well marked by Area Wide Protective. Two Cheer Stations will be along the route to encourage runners. The first 2 cheer stations to sign up will be chosen and receive a cash prize! The Course closes at 9am.
