Race-provided description
Come Run Sulphur, Louisiana! Join us for the 18th Annual Park to Park Half Marathon, 10K, and 1K on Saturday, February 20, 2027, in Sulphur, Louisiana. Organized in partnership by Race Pace Multisport, LLC and the Sulphur High School Track & Field and Cross Country program, this event has become a cornerstone of the Southwest Louisiana running calendar. Park to Park began in 2010 as a grassroots effort to support a local cancer patient and has since grown into Southwest Louisiana’s premier road race, bringing together runners, families, and supporters from across the region. A group of novice runners called the STARS created the event Running for Jimbo. As the cost of participating in athletics continues to rise—now exceeding $300 per athlete—fundraisers like Park to Park are more important than ever. Proceeds from the Half Marathon and 10K support the Sulphur High School Track & Field and Cross Country programs, helping to offset costs such as uniforms, race entry fees, travel expenses, and equipment. The course showcases the city of Sulphur, guiding runners past notable landmarks such as the Henning Cultural Center, West Calcasieu Cameron Hospital, and the historic City Courthouse, while also featuring the high-quality athletic facilities that define the region as a hub for youth sports. The Start and Finish are located at Heritage Square (1015 Ruth Street) in the heart of Sulphur.
