About the Running With Padre 5K
The course runs through the streets of Youngsville, starting and finishing on the grounds of St. Anne's Church. The route passes through the surrounding neighborhood, so it has the feel of a parish road race rather than a park loop. Proceeds go toward preserving and expanding the church itself, which gives the morning a purpose beyond the finish line.
Packet pickup is the evening before at the parish hall on Church Street, with race-morning pickup available if you cannot make it. The start area has music, snacks, face painting, and inflatable jumps, so families with younger kids have something to do before and after the race.

The Running With Padre 5K has been held every year since at least 2022. 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 24, 2026.
