The 2025 Maroon and White Fun Run offers 5K and 1-mile courses through Aggie Park and around campus
Texas A&M University Staff Council will host the second annual Maroon and White Fun Run, a community event benefitting the Staff Emergency Fund. This fund provides critical financial assistance to university staff facing unexpected hardships. The Fun Run will take place on Saturday, May 3, beginning at 7:30 a.m. at Aggie Park on the Texas A&M University campus in College Station.
The event is open to all Texas A&M University faculty, staff, students, former students and community members. Participants can choose to run or walk a 5K course through the Aggie Park and campus. A 1-mile course is available this year for younger participants. Registration is $30 for adults and $20 for children 12 and under. Those who register before April 14, 2025, will receive a T-shirt and medal.
“The Staff Emergency Fund is a vital resource for our Texas A&M family,” said Henry Judah, interim chief human resources officer. “This Fun Run is a fantastic opportunity for us to come together as a community, support our colleagues in need, and promote wellness. We encourage everyone to participate and help make a difference.”
The Fun Run aims to raise funds and promote health and well-being among Texas A&M staff. In addition to the run/walk, the event will feature a community race expo, breakfast tacos from Rudy’s Bar-B-Q and more.
“We are thrilled to organize this Fun Run and bring the Texas A&M community — university students, employees and local residents — together for such an important cause,” said Katie St. Clair, University Staff Council chairperson. “Every contribution, big or small, will directly impact the lives of our staff members who are facing unforeseen challenges. Let’s lace up our running shoes and show our Aggie Spirit!”
