The Pumpkin Spice 5K was a quick little race (obviously, it was a 5K) featuring all things pumpkin spice at the finish. Given it was a 5K, there was no expo (packet pickup was just at a local Run Project store). The race was at the Panther Island Pavilion in Fort Worth, so there was ample parking on race day. When I ran it there was only a 5K and 10K option (it has now expanded to include a 1/2 marathon) and it ran through the Trinity Trail, so it was decent scenery. The race was put on in November so the weather was really pleasant. The race swag when I ran it was a cozy long-sleeve tee, a coffee mug, and a pumpkin spice finisher's medal. I won 3rd place overall the year I ran it and was awarded a cute little pie server/slicer with the race emblem on the handle. At the finish they had a wide variety of pumpkin-flavored foods/drinks, such as pumpkin spice hot chocolate and coffee, and pumpkiny bakery treats. Overall, it was a really fun short race with tons of great pumpkin spice themed foods/drinks at the finish. Well worth the low race entry fee!
