Overview

Set for Saturday, January 3, 2026, at English Landing Park, this delightfully quirky “Time Travel” themed event lets participants journey through the ages—from the Stone Age to the Jet Age and beyond—as they tackle distances from a 1‑mile fun run and Kid’s Dash to competitive 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon options.

Geared toward all ages and skill levels, the event encourages costume creativity—time machines optional—and offers youth pricing for the 5K/10K ($15 for ages 12 & under), plus guaranteed swag for those who register early. Swag includes a super-soft custom tee and a memorable finisher medal (6″ for half, 3.5″ for 5K/10K, and fun pins for shorter distances).

All races start together at 9:00 AM CST, with chip timing, age-group awards (Half Marathon, 10K, 5K), and a comfortable course loop around the scenic English Landing Park—flat, fast, and family-friendly. A virtual option is also available, providing mailed swag and digital participation.

What makes this race truly memorable is its time-travel theme blended with community charm—where runners from different eras unite on a cheerful winter morning. Whether you’re chasing a goal pace or just looking for fun, this event combines creative expression, social connection, and solid pacing all in one.
