Meet our Aramco Houston Half Marathon race ambassadors
Dmytrii Dolhov is a 27-year-old Ukrainian who moved to Houston a couple of years ago. He is a logistics advisor at Aramco Americas and running enthusiast, having participated in a number of half marathons through the years.
The Houston Marathon races will take to the streets in 2022, with the return of an in-person event at the George R. Brown (GRB) Convention Center and a virtual option still available to participants.
The joy of running and supporting the community
Houston Marathon Weekend, slated for Friday, Jan. 14 through Sunday, Jan. 16, marks Aramco's 18th consecutive year as title sponsor of the Aramco Houston Half Marathon and 4th year as co-sponsor of the We Are Houston 5K.
Throughout the three-day weekend, Aramco representatives will be running and volunteering, with approximately 160 expected to tackle one of the three races and 100 signed on to do their part to support race-related activities — distributing registration packets, t-shirts, gear bags and finisher merchandise. Volunteers will be handing out water at the 5K finish line on Saturday.
Remote runners have a four-day window, January 14-17, to run and submit their time for their registered race through a participant portal. They can use a wearable device to track and upload their time or self-report by the January 17 deadline. Spectators can line the course route or watch the race by live broadcast on local station ABC13 Houston.
