Rouse FFA Crawfish Crawl 5k

Join us for the Crawfish Crawl 5k, a relaxed, stress-free walk/run around the Rouse High School campus in Leander, Texas. This event is designed for runners, walkers, families, and community members of all ages and abilities.

This is an untimed 5k—no timing chips—so participants can focus on enjoying the morning, supporting a great cause, and having fun together. The course is walker- and stroller-friendly, and friendly, leashed dogs are welcome. For safety reasons, bikes, scooters, and skateboards are not permitted on the course.

All participants who register by MIDNIGHT on Tuesday, April 21st are guaranteed an event t-shirt.

AS OF 5/1/2026 at 7:40PM WE NO LONGER HAVE SHIRTS AVAILABLE FOR THE 5K.  REGISTRATION IS STILL OPEN IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO PARTICIPATE.

Why We Crawl: Supporting Rouse FFA Alumni

Crawfish Crawl 5K is a fundraiser benefiting Rouse FFA Alumni. Rouse FFA Alumni is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization. The funds raised will help support Rouse FFA students through:

• Travel expenses for leadership contests and conferences
• Veterinary medicine, livestock, floral design, and agricultural mechanics projects

These funds directly enhance student education, hands-on learning, and leadership development opportunities within the Rouse FFA program.
