Worthington Waddle 5K

Worthington Waddle 5K takes place in Worthington, Indiana, in Greene County, on November 21, 2026. Two options start together at 9:00 a.m.: the WW 5K Run and the WW 5K Walk, both covering 3.1 miles. The event is designed for participants of all ages, with activities for runners and walkers alike.

Refreshments are served after the event, and there are prizes on offer, including awards for the top runners and for the best costumes, so a Thanksgiving-themed outfit is fair game. The race supports local charities through Worthington Tri Kappa. If you are running it seriously, spend the final weeks before the race adding one faster session a week and practicing an even first mile, since the 5K punishes a fast start. If you are walking, a brisk pace will get you through in 45 minutes to an hour. Either way, arrive early enough to check in, warm up for a few minutes and settle into the right spot in the start area for your pace.
