Home Town Heros 5k and Fun Run

Home Town Heros 5k and Fun Run is held in Cumming, Georgia, on November 14, 2026. The morning features a 5K road race and a 1K fun run (about 0.6 miles), both listed with an 8:00 AM start. The fun run gives kids and casual participants a short option while the 5K serves runners and walkers looking for a timed effort over 3.1 miles.

If you are targeting the 5K, use the weeks ahead for two or three runs per week with one session of intervals, such as six times 400 meters with jogging recovery. Beginners should focus on steadily extending continuous running until 30 minutes feels comfortable. Families can register for both events and make it a shared outing; because the starts are listed at the same time, check the on-site schedule to see how the two are sequenced before deciding who runs what.
