MK5K Killeen
MK5K Killeen takes place on October 10, 2026 at Ellison High School in Killeen, Texas. The event includes two 5K options and supports The Mary Kay Ash Foundation. Proceeds are designated for charity; the organizers report past fundraising totals and a fundraising goal for the year.
Registration details vary by option. The Live 5K is a chip timed, in-person 5K with tiered pricing: a limited no-shirt price is available early via a coupon code, standard registration includes a shirt and swag while quantities last. Registration deadlines and shirt guarantee dates fall in late September and early October; late registration may be available but shirts and swag are not guaranteed. Race fees are non-refundable.
The Sleep In 5K is a support-only option for participants who do not attend in person. This option includes a registration fee and may include an additional shipping fee for a shirt. The support-only option closes in late September.
Awards are given to the top male and female finishers and to the top three male and top three female finishers in each age group. Age groups include 11 and under, 12-15, 16-19, 20-24, 25-29 and continue through 70 plus. Packet pick up is available the day before and on race day at local pickup locations. The event is part of the Cen Tex race series and is held rain or shine, with possible delay or cancellation for severe weather. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
