Even if you only complete 1 mile, or you set a personal record goal for yourself, you won’t regret this fun but limit-pushing challenge.

Our sponsor P2:3 Consulting is now adding 2 FREE TICKETS to Pirates Bay Waterpark for every runner AND Baytown Fire is bringing out their firetruck to hose down runners so that we stay cooled down, or should we say WELL HYDRATED?

With plenty of 250th themed photo ops, a dri-fit shirt, a custom medal the shape of the unique loop route, 2 tickets to Pirates Bay waterpark, and a chance to say you’ve been spray down by a firetruck water hose, all in the name of FREEDOM and AMERICA!

After the race, stay and enjoy a full day of free family-friendly festivities including live music from Eli Young Band and more artists on stage, food and shopping vendors, family activities, a kids wagon parade, pie baking contest winners, frontier exhibits, cannon demonstrations, and a photo opportunity with a real bald eagle, followed by of course our end-of-the-night fireworks show. Bring the whole family and celebrate July 4th with us after the America Mile Race.

We hope you’ll join us for one of the most unique endurance events Baytown has ever hosted.

Register early, train hard, and we’ll see you on July 4th!

This is about 🏃🏼miles and 💰money, not a 5K, not a fun run, and definitely no “K’s.” P2:3 Consulting Presents: The 2026 America Mile AMRAP Challenge in Baytown, TX on July 4, 2026. Built around one thing, the mile, repeated as many times as you can handle. And $999 in prize money to the top four division winners.

On Independence Day from 2PM to 4PM, runners take on a 1-mile loop in a true AMRAP format (as many rounds as possible), pushing lap after lap through peak Texas heat. This isn’t about finishing a 5K, it’s about how many miles you can grind out when there are no shortcuts, no easing in, and no K’s to hide behind.

This is a “No K’s” race in every sense: no 5K distance, no Kids running, no "K"asual pacing, no pretending it’s anything other than a test of endurance and will. It’s just miles, grit, and the freedom to go all in—because America.

Did we mention a chance to win $999 in prize money? (Also, no $1K.. but $999.. because we are serious about the No Ks!)

With $999 in prize money across four divisions, only 250 committed runners will earn a spot in this mile-driven showdown.

The day finishes with Baytown’s largest free festival featuring live music from Eli Young Band and Mustache the Band, food, shopping, kids’ activities, fireworks, and more. Winners are crowned on stage during the celebration.

No 5K. No excuses. No K’s. Just miles.
