Storm the court
Run with the Rockets and you'll get tickets to an NBA game: A dash forbasketball fanatics
Have you ever wanted to run onto the Toyota Center court in a dash of joy? Well, your chance is here.
No, the Houston Rockets haven't traded for Dwight Howard and there still don't figure to be any court-storming wins in the team's near future.
But on Saturday morning, the Rockets will host the 10th annual Rockets Run — a 5K, two mile walk and kids 1K through the streets of downtown Houston.
Presented by Bowen, Miclette & Britt and benefiting Autism Speaks, the courses pass through midtown before finishing at the Toyota Center, right in the middle of the Rockets' home court.
The deadline for web entry has passed, but you can register on Saturday morning for $35. That fee gets you:
- A race T-shirt
- Post Race Party presented by UnitedHeathcare, with complimentary food and beverages
- One ticket voucher to a Rockets home game (choose between Jan. 25 vs. Milwaukee, Jan. 27 vs. Washington or Jan. 30 vs. Minnesota)
- Prizes for the first 10 finishers
Saturday is the perfect opportunity to be health-conscious and self-indulgent, while enjoying a lovely Houston "winter" morning and the company of your neighbors.
