Houston showed up in a big way. The UTHealth Houston Half Marathon & 10K just dropped 3,127 finishers into the books for 2026 — the largest field we pulled today by a wide margin. The full results are live now, so if you ran it, go find your name.
Results Just Landed
Today's pull brought in four races and roughly 9,494 result rows total. Here's the rundown:
- UTHealth Houston Half Marathon & 10K — Houston, Texas — 3,127 finishers. See results
- Purdue Boilermaker Half-Marathon & 5K — West Lafayette, Indiana — 1,873 finishers. See results
- Semper Fi 5K & Half — Washington, District of Columbia — 110 finishers. See results
- Bridge 2 Bridge Half Marathon & 5K — Ashtabula, Ohio — 88 finishers. See results
The Pattern: Texas-Sized Fields
Look at the spread. Houston's 3,127 finishers is more than 16 times the size of the Semper Fi field and more than 35 times Ashtabula's. Purdue's 1,873 isn't small either — together, Houston and West Lafayette account for the overwhelming majority of today's 9,494 rows. Big-city halfs and college-town races are pulling the crowds; the smaller community events are still getting it done, just with tighter packs. If you're chasing a PR, a smaller field like Bridge 2 Bridge might be your friend. If you want the big-race energy, Houston is clearly delivering.
