The Nobody Fight Alone 5K starts at 7:45 AM, so plan to arrive in Rio Grande City, Texas with time to spare for parking and warm-up. The race takes place at Fort Ringgold Historic District and offers two distances: a 1-mile option and a 5-mile option, giving runners flexibility based on their training or race-day goals. Entry fees range from $20 to $30. This October event provides an early-morning start typical of Texas fall racing, making it accessible for athletes traveling from out of town who want to complete their race and explore the area afterward.
From the Race Organizer
Nobody Fights Alone. 💛🎗️ Cancer doesn’t just impact one person—it touches families, friends, coworkers, and entire communities. Almost everyone knows someone whose life has been changed by this disease. That’s why this 5K is about so much more than running or walking. It’s about showing up . It’s about honoring those we’ve lost, celebrating the fighters and survivors among us, supporting the caregivers, and reminding every person facing cancer that they are never alone. Every step you take is a symbol of hope . Every registration helps raise awareness, sparks conversations, and brings our community together behind one powerful message: Nobody Fights Alone. Whether you’re running for someone you love, walking in memory of someone special, celebrating a survivor, or simply standing in support of the cause, your presence matters. Join us, bring your family and friends, and let’s make a difference—one step at a time. Because together, we are stronger, and together we remind the world that no one should ever have to fight cancer alone. 💛 Date: October 10, 2026 Location: Fort Ringgold Historic District, Rio Grande City, Texas 78582 Start Time: 7:45 a.m. Shirt Deadline: September 26, 2026 5K - $30, Chip timed, Finisher Medal, Age group awards, custom shirt (if before deadline). 5k without shirt - $25 Chip timed, Finisher Medal, Age group awards. 1 mile with shirt - $25 Chip timed, Finisher Medal, Age group awards, custom shirt (if before deadline). 1 mile without shirt - $20 Chip timed, Finisher Medal, Age group award.
