About the Mission Waco Race ONE 5K and Fun Run

The course runs through a neighborhood near Jubilee Park, mixing flat stretches with rolling hills. It does not flatten out entirely, but nothing is steep enough to stop you. The route has the feel of a local block party mapped onto pavement, and the proceeds go toward programs run by a Waco-based nonprofit.

Ballots are handed out with packets for runners who register by the early deadline, and you bring them to Jubilee Park on race morning to vote for which Mission Waco program receives a share of the proceeds. Door prizes are drawn from those ballots before the start, so there is a reason to arrive early and turn yours in.
