🎰 Welcome to Z Krewe's High Rollin' 0.5K! 🎰
What happens at the 0.5K... gets posted all over social media!
Grab your lucky charm, put on your best Vegas attire, and join your fellow underachievers for the most prestigious half-kilometer in Texas!
Z Krewe's 6th Annual 0.5K returns on May 2, 2027, at Galveston Bay Brewing in Clear Lake Shores, Texas. This isn't your typical race. There are no elite athletes, no personal records, and absolutely no expectations. Just a whole lot of fun, laughter, questionable athletic decisions, and a great cause.
While we're busy rolling dice, collecting participation medals, and celebrating minimal physical effort, we're also raising money for the Galveston County Food Bank's Kidz Pacz Summer Program. Every dollar raised helps provide meals and snacks to local children during the summer months when school cafeterias are closed.
Packet Pickup and Registration open at 10:30 a.m. The big "race" begins at approximately 12:05 p.m. Vegas-style timing applies!
"RACE" Details:
Let's get one thing straight...
It's a 0.5K.
Not a 5K.
Not a 10K.
Not even a 1K.
Just 1,640-ish feet of pure athletic mediocrity.
This event was created for people who have no interest in going the extra mile and aren't particularly excited about going the first mile either. Whether you're a couch champion, professional procrastinator, recreational snacker, or simply someone who enjoys having fun while supporting a great cause, this is your race.
Along the course you'll encounter Adventure Stations, hydration opportunities, carb-loading stops, and enough entertainment to make you forget you're technically exercising.
No training required!
No experience necessary!
No shame allowed!
Everyone receives a finisher medal because surviving a 0.5K deserves recognition!
"RACE" tips:
Get to the starting line early so you can stretch (0.3 miles is nothing to take too lightly)
At the halfway point (that's a whopping .1555555 miles in), enjoy an ice cold adult beverage (or Kiddo Beverage for those under the age of 21) to stay hydrated and remember to down some carbs for energy
Celebrate crossing the finish line and receive your "Finisher's Medal" with a FINISHER'S BEER (ROOT BEER - for the Kiddos)!
