The 12th annual Fresh 15 race is March 1, 2025, starting at 7am.

FRESH 15 is not just a race – it’s an experience. Don’t miss out on this event that is quickly becoming a destination race and leading 15K in the United States. Our race focuses on the runner experience, offering the best swag, a safe, spectator-filled course, and an awesome post-race party. 100% of race revenue is donated back to non-profit organizations within our community.


We love A GOOD 360 photo booth MOMENT!

Both FRESH 15 courses take runners on a journey through South Tyler and the beautiful Hollytree Country Club!

Parents or guardians are allowed to run with their children for FREE. No sign up required.

Important Information:

Child safety is our top priority. To help with security, we enforce mandatory wristbands. Your child’s race packet will contain two wristbands with the same number on both. On race day, please put one on your child’s wrist and one on your own wrist. Your child will only be allowed to leave the finish line with an adult whose wristband numbers match theirs. 

BGC Racing does not provide child care at it’s races. Race with them or be their personal cheerleader!

Thank you for your cooperation and for helping us make this a fun, safe event for kids!

Our volunteers are the foundation of success for FRESH 15. By getting involved, you are a part of our mission to help people become healthier while still giving 100% of race revenue back to non-profit organizations.

There are many different areas where we can use your talent:

The FRESH 15 supports nonprofit organizations that provide strength, stability and safety for families.

You see it in our store; you’ll see it at the race… being a part of a “family” is deep with the culture of our company. We award funding from the FRESH 15 to groups that exemplify the strength it takes to support every sense of the term “family” – passion, hope, dignity, belonging, protection are all vital to building lives that truly make a difference.

Every runner counts. Because we give 100% of runner revenue to our nonprofit partners, participants have already left a substantial impact in the lives of families to the tune of more than $1.3 million raised in just ten years of running.​

Charities may request support from the FRESH 15 until August 30, 2024. We will select 10-15 charities to assist. It is expected that charities receiving funds will change each year.

We welcome elite athletes to the 11th annual FRESH 15. To qualify as an elite runner, you must meet the following time requirements and provide proof of finish times.

All times must have been recorded in the last 18 months. Comparable times may be considered for elite status upon approval.

Thank you for your interest in our event!

FRESH 15 began with the idea of creating an iconic event that would motivate our community and Brookshire Grocery Co. employees to become healthier. With this event comes great pride as we join together to support charity and give back to our community. Unlike other races, we give 100% of race revenue back to non-profit organizations. We also have runners on our race team who understand the race from an athlete’s perspective and work on FRESH 15 year-round to create something memorable for everyone from the seasoned runner to the kids.

By focusing on the runner, volunteer, and spectator experiences of race day, we hope to make an impact on the lives of those involved to create a healthier, happier community. We firmly believe that motivating someone to get off the couch and move can change their life. This is something we have witnessed and are proud to say that FRESH 15 has done for many people.
