From the Organizer
Join us for the Altra Federal Credit Union Harvest Hustle 5K & Kids 1K Race presented by Christus Trinity Mother Frances on Oct 10, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. A portion of the proceeds to benefit the following: Bethesda Health Clinic, David Powell Food Pantry (Society of St. Stephen), Hospice of East Texas, and Lillie Russell Memorial Library. The Harvest Hustle will begin in the heart of Lindale with check-in taking place in front of The Cannery Stage, adjacent to Pickers Pavilion located at 205 Cannery Row.
This year’s race is timed by locally owned and operated iTRI365 Timing & Event Production. The first 250 to cross the finish line will receive a participation medal. This year we are bringing back the popular Kids 1K to kick off the morning event, followed by the 5K. Runners will “get their legs under them” on the flat first half mile traveling through a residential area east on North Street, then turn north onto the challenging rural rolling hills of Iron Mountain Road! The back stretch for runners will again be the rolling hills of Iron Mountain Road, to the west turn onto North Street for the half mile dash to the finish!
T-shirts are not guaranteed after October 1, 2026.
