The Wichita Falls Runners Club (WFRC) was founded in 1978 to promote the spirit of running and fitness in Wichita Falls, TX and the surrounding area. Today that spirit is alive and well thanks to our members.
With the WFRC, running is all about fitness and fun! We have a wide range of members who enjoy running every distance and speed, ranging from casual walkers to recreational runners to hardcore racers… everyone is welcome.
The club is very active with all types of running and walking activities in the community. There are regular running groups several times a week, bimonthly meetings, guest speakers, fun runs, organized races, running trips and plenty of fun for all!
Members receive $5 discounts towards all WFRC events and discounts on select other local events such as THOR.

T.H.O.R. represents everything that is right with the world today - mud, guts and everybody nuts. Trust us... someone nuts is going to be running with or near you. Come experience the insanity and the awesome adrenaline rush.
The 5K(ish) run starts and ends at our awesome T.H.O.R. village. We will have food, beverages and music for participants and spectators to enjoy while experiencing this fun adventure event . Step up to the starting line and face the 20+ challenging obstacles that await you, including several new surprises every year!
Afraid you are not up to the challenge? Don't worry, you can go at your own pace and walk if you need to. Also, most obstacles have a by-pass option if you are having trouble or just don't feel up to tackling a particular obstacle.
As always, we expect fair team play with random strangers. Remember this event is about having an old-fashioned roll in the mud good time and supporting two great local non-profit organizations. All proceeds benefit Wichita Falls Streams & Valleys and Leadership Wichita Falls (LWF).
Us adults shouldn't get to have ALL the fun... so we have something for the younger adventure seekers out there too! We have a totally separate course built just for the kids ages 4 -12. Kid's early registration price is just $25 up thru February 28th (after that it is $30 until the day of the event and $35 onsite).
We can't wait to see you on April 18th 2026! Come get your THOR on!
