The HBA Eikenburg 8K Fun Run began with a vision. In 1985, John J. Eikenburg, then-president of the Houston Bar Association (HBA), approached the association's executive director, Kay Sim, with the idea to establish a fun run that would benefit a Houston charity. Together, they selected the Pursuit Center as the beneficiary, creating what would become one of Houston's most enduring charitable sporting traditions.
More than 40 years, the HBA has organized the HBA Eikenburg 8K Fun Run, building on its founder's vision. This signature event has raised over $1.5 million to support the Pursuit Center, a vital Houston nonprofit organization serving individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and autism.
HBA is a nonprofit professional organization dedicated to serving attorneys through education and service programs that benefit both the legal profession and the greater Houston community. With over 9,000 members, the HBA stands as one of the largest metropolitan bar associations in the nation, demonstrating the strength and commitment of Houston's legal community.
