The Great Houston Pie Run is a Houston holiday race for runners seeking Thanksgiving enjoyment without an early start. It embraces the pie theme from the beginning: dessert enthusiasts and runners share a reason to move, celebrate, and save space for a sweet treat.
The course is noted as fast and welcoming, accommodating a range of participants from regular runners to casual attendees and those drawn by the holiday spirit. Those who finish receive a complimentary beer and a mini-pie. The race is the eighth event in the Houston Holiday Series.
