Big Pumpkin Run 2025 Debuts “Five in One” Interactive Race Shirt

September 10, 2025

ORANGE, Texas /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ – The Big Pumpkin Run, produced annually in Orange, Texas, will once again feature a standout piece of race-day apparel in 2025: the “Five in One” Magic Shirt.

This marks the second collaboration between the event and X T-shirt, bringing runners a shirt that is more than a souvenir — it’s a fully interactive experience:

  • Color-Changing: Hidden pumpkin details reveal themselves under sunlight in bright seasonal tones.
  • Sweat-Activated: Motivational phrases emerge as runners heat up, adding surprise and encouragement mid-race.
  • Glow-in-the-Dark: At night, glowing pumpkin-themed graphics create a stunning effect for photos and post-race celebrations.

The result is a shirt that transforms throughout the day, connecting with participants in fun, unexpected ways. As one participant shared on social media, “This is the coolest race shirt I’ve ever seen — it made the run so much more fun.”

“We’re excited to return to the Big Pumpkin Run for a second year,” said Ryan Zhu, founder of X T-shirt. “Combining multiple interactive technologies in one shirt is a milestone for us, and it shows how creative design can elevate the entire race experience.”

The Big Pumpkin Run takes place on October 4, 2025 in Orange, Texas, and welcomes runners of all levels. Registration is now open at: https://runsignup.com/Race/TX/Orange/TheBigPumpkinRun2023.
