About the Gobble Gallop 5K
The course starts and finishes at IHM and runs mostly flat through the neighboring properties along a main commercial route nearby. It draws strollers and dogs alongside runners, and Thanksgiving-themed gear is common. The race benefits a local food pantry, and non-perishable donations are collected at packet pickup.
Packet pickup runs the evening before, with an early race-morning window as well. Parking is at IHM via the north driveway, where attendants direct traffic. The south driveway is closed to cars on race day and used for the course itself, so note the entrance before you arrive.

The Gobble Gallop 5K has been held every year since at least 2023. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Oct 18, 2026.
