Changing Lives in 915 8K RUN/5K RUN/1 MILE WALK

Changing Lives in the 915 is an El Paso charity event held in October, featuring an 8K run, a 5K run, and a 1-mile walk. This year's event moves the race to the evening for a 5:30 p.m. sunset run, a change from earlier editions that took place in the morning at Ascarate Park. The event welcomes families and casual participants alongside runners, inviting all ages and abilities. Proceeds benefit the El Paso Children’s Hospital Foundation, with past fundraising also supporting the EPPD K9 Unit. Following the race, attendees can enjoy food trucks, local vendors, music, family activities, complimentary beer, and an after-party. One past event began with El Paso singer Elia Esparza singing the national anthem.
