About the Addi's Faith Turkey Day 5K & Kids Wishbone 1K

This is a Thanksgiving morning race in Kingwood, with a short course for younger kids alongside the main run. The race benefits a foundation focused on pediatric cancer research and supporting families going through childhood cancer treatment. Both distances draw families who come back year after year, and the cause is front and center throughout the morning.

Packet pickup runs across two evenings at a local Lutheran church in the days before Thanksgiving. Signs for the foundation will point you where to go when you arrive.

Common Questions About the Addi's Faith Turkey Day 5K & Kids Wishbone 1K

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 36:48, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:16:01, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Addi's Faith Turkey Day 5K & Kids Wishbone 1K a good first 5K?

With 1,322 finishers there are runners at every pace, so you are never out on your own. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 5K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Addi's Faith Turkey Day 5K & Kids Wishbone 1K?

The 5K winner ran 15:41 while the median finisher took 36:48. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
