About the Rocky Comfort Pecan Festival Costume 5K

This is a costume run attached to a pecan festival, so people show up dressed. The race itself is a straightforward out-and-back or loop through Foreman, and the real draw is what surrounds it: vendors, live music, a classic car show, and a pet costume parade all follow the morning run. Prizes for top finishers are gift boxes of locally grown pecans.

Bib pickup happens in the hour before the start at the race address on N Madden St. There is water at the finish line. The festival grounds open up right after the race, so there is no reason to leave early.

Common Questions About the Rocky Comfort Pecan Festival Costume 5K

Will I finish last at the Rocky Comfort Pecan Festival Costume 5K?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 36:18, and the last recorded finisher came in around 48:29, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Rocky Comfort Pecan Festival Costume 5K a good first 3.1 Miles?

It is a small race (22 finishers), which is friendlier and less intimidating than a big-city event, though the field thins out. 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.

How competitive is the Rocky Comfort Pecan Festival Costume 5K?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 21:51 while the median finisher took 36:18. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
