The Azle Lake Run has been a primary event in the Azle community for 44 years. A large portion of the proceeds are shared among local charities and ministries of the Azle Area Ministerial Alliance. 

 

From the seasoned runner to the beginner, the Azle Lake Run offers two different event

levels of varying challenges for all.

       *10k (6.2 miles)

       * 5k (3.1 miles)
       *1 Mile Color Fun Run 

 

​

Set for its 45th annual running in 2026 through the streets of this small city that lies just a short drive from nearby Fort Worth and the Dallas metropolitan area, the Azle Lake Run features a 10K, 5K and one-mile Color Fun run, all of which will start and finish at Azle’s Ash Creek Park, 605 Southeast Parkway, Azle, TX.

​

The race takes runners on a winding, out-and-back route through Azle which lies along the western edge of Eagle Mountain Lake.

 

Race Weather & Climate

On race day (Nov. 7, 2026), Azle typically sees an average low of 46ºF and an average high 68ºF.

​

Pet Friendly

The Azle Lake Run is one of the few running events which permits pets on the course with their owners.

 

Animals should be current with their vaccinations and keep their owners on a leash. Water will be provided on the courses for all our furry friends.

​

Some proceeds from the event go to the Azle High School Marching Green Pride Band and its booster club. Band members assist with the race and provide musical entertainment along the course.

Azle Area Ministerial Alliance (AAMA):
The AAMA is a fellowship of Christian leaders partnering together with one voice to positively impact our culture for Christ. We celebrate unity amid diversity as we pastor and serve our community. In our effort to bring the community together, we host events such as Follow the Flag, the National Day of Prayer, and the Azle Lake Run. Each month, we hold a luncheon for pastors and community leaders to gather in fellowship and be nourished both physically and spiritually. Each year, we also award several Roland Earl Memorial Scholarships to local high school seniors.
