Welcome Warriors Ninja 5K Fun Run/Walk

Lace up for a truly unique and engaging experience at the Welcome Warriors Ninja 5K Fun Run/Walk, set to unfold on February 28, 2026, in the charming town of Industry, TX. This 3.1-mile event offers a picturesque journey through country landscapes, complete with open pastures and glimpses of farm animals, providing a scenic backdrop for your run or walk. Beyond the beautiful course, typical race day conditions often see pleasant temperatures, with highs around 68F and lows around 46F, and only a 12% chance of precipitation, creating ideal weather for an enjoyable outdoor activity.

What truly sets the Welcome Warriors Ninja 5K apart is its innovative "Capture the Flag" element. While timed results are still offered for those seeking a personal best, participants can also engage in a spirited division-based flag pursuit. Each division has a uniquely colored flag posted at the halfway point, and the goal is to be the first to capture it and bring it across the finish line. Runners can even "tap out" a flag holder, who then yields a 10-yard advantage, adding an exciting, friendly competition to the course. Dress up as a ninja to fully embrace the fun, and look forward to receiving a race medal for participating, with additional prizes for Capture the Flag winners in each division and for the top overall male and female finishers.

Beginning at 725 Main St, this community event is more than just a race; it's a vital fundraiser for the Welcome Sports Ministry, an outreach program of Welcome Lutheran Church that provides free martial arts lessons focused on self-defense for all ages. Join this uplifting initiative for a memorable morning of fitness, fun, and community support.
