Mustang Lakes Harvest Run

Mustang Lakes Harvest Run is held in Celina, Texas, on November 21, 2026, with a 5K (3.1 miles) starting at 8:00 a.m. Set in the Mustang Lakes community, this harvest-themed race brings a late-November Saturday morning of running to the Texas town, with a single distance that keeps things simple for runners and walkers.

If you are looking for a first 5K, a community harvest run is a comfortable place to start: give yourself four to six weeks of three easy sessions a week, mixing jogging and walking until you can move continuously for 30 minutes. If you are a regular runner, use the race as a fitness check before the holidays by adding a weekly set of short repeats at goal pace and one steady 4-mile run. Either way, arrive early enough for bib pickup and a short warm-up, and keep breakfast light before the 8:00 a.m. start.
