About the Spud Run 5K, 10K, 15K Challenge and Cabbage Crawl Fun Run
The course takes you out through the agricultural countryside around Hastings, and that is the whole point. The race is named for the potato farming the area is known for, and the route reflects it: open land, rural roads, and a sense of space you do not get in a city race. Several distance options mean the morning draws a wide spread of paces.
Packet pickup is available the afternoon before on Main Street in Hastings, with race-morning pickup starting early if you cannot make it the day before. The finish brings live entertainment, so there is reason to stick around after you cross.

The Spud Run 5K, 10K, 15K Challenge and Cabbage Crawl Fun Run has been held every year since at least 2013. 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 Nov 12, 2026.
