Run for the Water

Run for the Water offers a 5K and 10-mile race options, along with a Kids K race. Gilbert Tuhabonye, Gazelle Foundation co-founder and a Burundian genocide survivor, has carried the Olympic torch in Atlanta, won multiple collegiate National Championships and has served as a coach at St. Andrews High School, according to the race's website.

Tuhabonye organizes Run for the Water through his work at the Gazelle Foundation.

"Simply by registering to run, you are providing clean water for someone in Burundi for life," the race's website reads in part. "Since 2006, you and each of the over 48,000 runners have helped us provide daily access to clean water for an equal number of Burundians."

Here's a breakdown from the Austin Transportation and Public Works Department on traffic impacts and road closures from the race.

Those seeking alternative traffic routes can turn to Lamar Boulevard, Congress Avenue and MoPac Expressway for northbound and southbound traffic, as well as Barton Springs Road, Fifth and Sixth streets, 15th Street and 35th Street for eastbound and westbound navigation.
