Hustle for Harvest Share

Hustle for Harvest Share is held in Columbia, Tennessee, on Thanksgiving Day, November 26, 2026. The event offers one format, a 5K Run/Walk (3.1 miles) starting at 8:00 a.m. As its name suggests, it is run in support of Harvest Share, and the run-and-walk format keeps it open to anyone who wants to be part of it, from competitive runners to families out for a holiday walk.

Three-point-one miles is short enough to fit into a busy holiday morning and long enough to feel like a real race. If you plan to run hard, a few weeks of easy mileage with one weekly interval session and some strides will sharpen your legs, and an easy ten-minute jog before the 8:00 a.m. start will help you settle into pace quickly. Walkers and first-timers can simply make sure they have covered the distance once or twice at a comfortable effort beforehand. A late-November morning in Middle Tennessee is typically cool, so bring a layer for the wait at the start.
