Hotcake Hustle

Hotcake Hustle is a Run Project event in Plano, Texas, at Red Tail Pavilion near Oak Point Nature Preserve. The race series offers 10K, 5K, Fun Run, and Virtual Run routes that wind through Oak Point’s scenic trails; the 5K is USATF-certified. The day blends running with a pancake-themed celebration—post-race pancakes, coffee, hot chocolate, food, beer, and more.

Highlights include a pancake eating contest and an after-party, plus collectible swag (raglan sleeve shirt, finisher’s medal, race bib). It’s pitched as a family-friendly kick-off to the racing season. Course maps, including the USATF-certified 5K, are available on the event page.
