Toyota Music Factory Half Marathon, 10K & 5K

Toyota Music Factory Half Marathon, 10K & 5K is held in Irving, Texas, on November 8, 2026, based at the Toyota Music Factory. The half marathon (13.1 miles) and the 10K start together at 7:30 a.m., with the 5K following at 7:45 a.m. Having all three go off within a quarter of an hour keeps the morning tight and puts every distance back at the finish area at roughly the same time.

Three distances from one venue makes this a good target for a running group with mixed abilities. A November half in north Texas usually means cool starting temperatures, which favors an even pacing plan: pick the pace you can hold for 13.1 miles and refuse to beat it in the first three. Build over about 12 weeks with a long run reaching 11 miles.
