The family-friendly, 3.1-mile “fun run” will start at 6:30 p.m. and travel through the actual parade route, meaning parade-goers will be there to cheer on runners.
Registration is open to the public for $45 through April 26, and $50 on race day.
Registration includes a bib, shirt and other goodies. The first 1,000 finishers will receive a medal.
Kids ages 11 and younger can register for $10, but a shirt is not included.
A press release states runners are encouraged to wear costumes, Fiesta attire or Spurs gear for a chance to win a prize in a pre-race costume contest.
“There’s no specific theme, so runners can choose their own creative outfits,” the release states.
The race starts at the parade start line at the intersection of Evergreen and Main Streets and ends at Piazza Italia Park, 500 Columbus St.
A post-race celebration will take place at the Piazza Italia Park and include live music, guest appearances and photo ops.

Proceeds from the event will go to Spurs Give, the Spurs’ official nonprofit organization that helps San Antonio’s youth.
