Steps for Students

Steps for Students 5K is an annual running and walking event in downtown Houston, held at the Co-Cathedral of the Sacred Heart (1111 St Joseph Parkway). The event offers four options: 5K Timed, 5K Untimed, Family 1K Fun Run, and Hit the Snooze for Students. The day starts with a Sunrise Mass and wraps with a post-race party in the Catholic School Village, creating a festive, family-friendly atmosphere.

A Course Map is available on the site. The race supports Catholic education across 55 Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston schools; in 2024 nearly 9,000 registered and close to $800,000 raised. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
