Elementary & Middle School Families: Join us at the 7th Annual Longhorn Stampede 5K Run/Walk on May 20th as we celebrate our community!

The Stampede’s flat and USATF-certified course starts at Leigh High School, winds through our surrounding Cambrian neighborhoods, and ends in the school quad. Whether you are a walker, casual jogger, or distance runner, come join our community celebration!

Leigh musicians and cheerleaders will be providing spirit on the course. Pick up a shaved ice as you run or walk. After the race, join us in the quad for an awards ceremony, refreshments, sponsor booths, music, a photo booth, and more.

This is a wonderful opportunity for all elementary and middle school students to visit a high school campus. For students who will be attending Leigh High School in the future, come and spend time on your future high school campus and meet our amazing Leigh community!

Bring your family, friends, and neighbors, and come join in the fun. Special family rate available. All participants will receive a custom medal. Awesome T-shirts are included in your registration while supplies last. Sign up soon to make sure you get yours! All proceeds benefit programs for our Leigh students.

Lots of volunteers are needed to make this event happen. If you won't be running or walking but still want to join in the fun, please sign up to help hand out medals, direct runners, clean up, and more.

We are in particular need of volunteers to sign up for the role of Course Marshal. 

Course Marshals must be 18 years or older. This role involves standing at an assigned location along the route and directing the participants. This is a critical role as, per the City of San Jose, our event cannot happen unless we have 36 Course Marshals on the course.

Follow us on social media for event updates.

The Longhorn Stampede would not be possible without the generous support of our sponsors. All proceeds from the Stampede directly benefit all of the students at Leigh High School.

Our booster clubs at Leigh – Home & School Club, Performing Arts Parent Association, Sports Boosters, and Spirit Boosters – have come together to organize this fun-filled 5k neighborhood Run/Walk, with the goal of bringing our entire community together. Proceeds will benefit all Leigh students.
