Feeding 500 Holiday Hustle

Feeding 500 Holiday Hustle takes place in Wilton, Connecticut, on December 13, 2026. One distance is listed, a 5K, and it starts at 9:30 a.m. That single format keeps the morning simple: one gun, one course, and a finish line reached well before lunch.

A 5K in mid-December works as a seasonal marker rather than a peak race, which is exactly why it is worth entering. Run it hard and you get a number to compare against next spring; run it easy and it becomes a social hour on the roads. Either way, arrive with a throwaway top layer, jog for ten to fifteen minutes before the gun, and add a few strides so the first half mile does not feel like a shock to your legs.
