Back the Blue 5K

The 2025 Back the Blue 5K is a fundraising running event held in Deer Park, Texas, at the Jimmy Burke Activity Center on West 13th Street. This 3.1-mile race honors law enforcement officers and welcomes participants from the community, not limited to law enforcement. The event features a timed course with bib timing, and the first 300 finishers receive medals.

Participants are encouraged to pick up race packets the day before or early on race day. Post-race festivities include vendors, a silent auction, BBQ, live music, and a kids' play zone. Proceeds benefit the Deer Park Police Officer's Association, supporting local law enforcement. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
