Thanksgiving Gobble Trot Run 5K/10K/13.1 HOUSTON

Thanksgiving Gobble Trot Run 5K/10K/13.1 HOUSTON is the Houston, Texas, edition of the Gobble Trot, run on November 28, 2026. All four distances go at 7:30 a.m.: a half marathon (13.1 miles), a 10K, a 5K and a one-mile family fun run. Timing is optional, the event is open to all ages and abilities as a run or a walk, and your entry brings a race shirt, a finisher medal and other items posted to your address, with a virtual option for anyone who cannot attend.

Late November is a common window for half marathoners building toward a winter or early-spring marathon, and a road 13.1 fits neatly into that as a tune-up rather than a peak. Race it at goal marathon effort and you learn something useful. If you would rather keep the day social, the 5K and the mile take almost nothing out of your legs.
