On 28 February 2026, the Alamo Donut Dash returns as the kickoff event of the Run The Alamo weekend in San Antonio, with 5 km and 10 km courses that begin in Civic Park @ Hemisfair. Runners will pass by cultural and historic landmarks—including The Alamo, River Walk, San Fernando Cathedral, and King William District—on a certified, city-center route. The race features chip timing, aid stations, race expo, and a festive post-race celebration with donuts, giveaways, and local flair. Participants can also take part in the “Alamo Duel” by running both the Donut Dash and the Half/Marathon on the following day. The event emphasizes community, history, and a sweet twist on traditional racing.
