Be A HERO

There are three ways to participate in the Chevron Houston Marathon’s Run for a Reason: Fundraise for Registration or HERO Registration.

  • Fundraise for Registration (Half-Marathon & Marathon): you raise $600 for the Houston SPCA to secure your spot, and we pay your entry fee!
  • Fundraise for Registration (5K): you raise $300 for the Houston SPCA to secure your spot, and we pay your entry fee!
  • HERO Registration: your spot is guaranteed by donating $350 to the Houston SPCA and paying registration cost.

When you donate, you automatically qualify for 1st-level HERO benefits, but you can achieve HERO status by fundraising the minimum.

How to Register

Interested in participating with Houston SPCA in the Chevron Houston Marathon Run for a Reason Program? There are a few ways to join the team.

Fundraise for Registration
In order to participate, you can commit to our fundraising minimum of $300 to $600, depending on your race of choice. We will cover your race entry fee once your fundraising commitment is met!
HERO Registration
Purchase your entry at a reduced price and pay a one-time donation of at least $350 to fast-track the process! Plus, you can still fundraise after registration if you'd like.
Just Fundraise
Not sure you want to run, but would like to support the team? Say no more! You can just contribute to or host your own fundraiser.
