Nut 5K and Fun Run

Nut 5K and Fun Run takes place in Malone, Florida, on November 21, 2026, with the 5K starting at 7:30 a.m. The event pairs a timed 3.1-mile race with a fun run, so families and casual participants have a place alongside those running for a time. It is a Saturday-morning race on the weekend before Thanksgiving.

An early 7:30 a.m. start is good news for anyone who wants to race a 5K and still have the rest of the day free. If you are going for a time, four to six weeks with one interval session of short repeats and one steady 4-mile run each week will sharpen you up nicely. If you are here for the fun run or a relaxed 5K with family, aim to be comfortable on your feet for half an hour by race day, which a few weeks of easy jogging or brisk walking will achieve. Keep breakfast light and early, and jog a few minutes before the start to wake up your legs.
