Run For The Water

Run For The Water
One Race. A Lifetime of Change.

The Gazelle Foundation knows that clean water is the key to life. But no one knows this better than the people of Burundi. For more than 11 million people, access to clean water means better health, a stronger community, jobs, education, and, most of all, hope.

Your race directly funds building water systems in one of the poorest countries in the world. Our Mission. Your Movement For Change.

We're celebrating 20 years of Run For The Water!

For two decades, the Gazelle Foundation has thrown the best race in town. Each November, over 5,000 runners and walkers take to the streets of downtown Austin for the annual Run For The Water 5K, 10-Miler, and Kids K through our beautiful west Austin course.

The race benefits the Gazelle Foundation, dedicated to providing clean water to the people of Burundi. Clean water provides a path out of poverty, bringing access to better health, stronger communities, jobs, education, and most of all: hope. For those who prefer to participate in a virtual event, our Global Run is available.

Global Run For The Water is a virtual event that can be run, jogged, or walked from any location you choose. You can run for clean water wherever you are. Your Global Run can be completed beginning one week prior to race day.
