Hot Cake Hustle 10K/5K

Hot Cake Hustle 10K/5K is held in Addison, Texas, on January 9, 2027, with two road distances, a 10K and a 5K. Start times have not been published, so check with the organizer as the date approaches.

Having both distances on the same morning makes the choice a training question rather than a fitness one. The 5K is the sharper effort and tells you where your top-end speed sits; the 10K asks you to hold a strong pace for twice as long and translates more directly into half marathon planning. If you are unsure, take the 10K and run the first two miles at what feels like a comfortable pace, then press. Six to eight weeks with one weekly threshold session covers either option.
