Which nights should you book for Medal Madness 5K, 10K, & 13.1M at Deer Park, TX (35)?
Book the night before the race — 2026-08-28 — to be rested and ready for an early start. Also consider booking the night after — 2026-08-29 — as runners will likely be fatigued and road closures on race morning may make post-race travel difficult. If you are supporting a runner but not staying for recovery, you may leave after the event ends, but note that returning to your accommodation late on race day could be challenging if you’ve booked only the night before.
