Pumpkin Fun Run/Walk - Hewitt, WI

Pumpkin Fun Run/Walk - Hewitt, WI is held in Hewitt, Wisconsin, on November 7, 2026, with one distance on the card: a 5K (3.1 miles) run and walk starting at 10 a.m. The late start is welcome in Wisconsin in November, since it gives the air a couple of hours to warm before you line up.

Cold-weather racing rewards a bit of planning. Warm up indoors or in the car if you can, dress as though it were ten degrees warmer than the thermometer says, and keep gloves on for the first mile even if you plan to throw them aside. Once you are running, a 5K is a 5K: even effort, a controlled opening mile and a strong last half mile. If you are entering as a walker instead, the distance is a pleasant hour and needs no preparation beyond comfortable shoes.
