Gobbler 5K, 10K, & 13.1M at Charlotte, NC (48) 2026

The Gobbler 5K, 10K, & 13.1M is a late-November running race in Charlotte, North Carolina, offering three distance options starting from Mallard Creek Playground, located opposite Mallard Creek Elementary School. All races begin at 8:30 AM with a 3-hour-30-minute course limit. Participants must register in advance via RunSignup, as no on-site registration is available. Packet pickup commences 30 minutes prior to the start. The course features out-and-back routes with an initial and final incline. Longer races cover the same section multiple times rather than extending across the city. The 5K completes the route once, the 10K twice, and the half marathon navigates it four times. All finishers get medals, and awards will be presented. Series points are tallied, and a best-costume award adds a festive element to the morning.
