Pharr, TX
The Leftovers Run is a post-Thanksgiving morning race at the Pharr Sports Complex. The concept is straightforward: the organizers run other events throughout the year and accumulate leftover gear, then put on this race to move it. A portion of proceeds goes to a local Catholic church.
The race starts at the sports complex the weekend after Thanksgiving. Packet pickup timing is set closer to race day, so check back for those details when they are announced.

Going by the 2025 results, this is a small, friendly field, and the spread of finish times is wide, so this is a mostly recreational race rather than one for club runners.
Top 3: Angel Hernandez (16:19) · Daniel Castillo (16:28) · Alvaro Aguiñaga JR (17:08)
The Leftovers Run has been held every year since at least 2024. 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.
Set a goal and get a pace band: every mile split on a card sized for your phone lock screen, so race morning needs no math.

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 31:48, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:06:20, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.
A field of 236 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 3.1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.
The 3.1 Miles winner ran 16:19 while the median finisher took 31:48. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
