๐Ÿ“ธ Throwback to 2011 โ€” When the Gobble Hobble Went Big (and Star-Studded!)

The Sixth Annual Richardson Gobble Hobble on November 19, 2011, was truly one for the highlight reel! ๐Ÿ’™

With BlueCross BlueShield of Texas as our first-ever presenting sponsor, we expanded the course to run right through their campus โ€” and the crowd was our largest yet! The Sonyยฎ Walkmanยฎ W-Series Tour kept the music pumping, and our celebrity runner, Troy Aikman, brought a little extra star power to the starting line. ๐Ÿˆโœจ

We raised an incredible $21,305 to help victims in our community through Neighborhood Youth and Family Counseling (NYFC), the nonprofit providing victim assistance services for the Richardson Police Department.

And the finish line didnโ€™t disappoint โ€” bananas, bagels, California Dried Plums, Pirateโ€™s B***y, and plenty of post-race smiles to go around! ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿฅฏ๐Ÿฆƒ

Swipe through these classic photos to relive the energy, the excitement, and that unforgettable year when the Gobble Hobble became a true Richardson Thanksgiving tradition โ€” complete with a Hall-of-Fame guest! ๐Ÿ™Œ

The Sixth Annual Richardson Gobble Hobble on November 19, 2011, marked a major step forward for our hometown tradition!
This was our first year with a presenting sponsor โ€” Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas! ๐Ÿ’™ Their partnership helped us expand the course to run through their campus and host the Sonyยฎ Walkmanยฎ W-Series Tour โ€” a fun stop that had everyone moving to the music. ๐ŸŽง

With another record-breaking crowd (the biggest yet!) and a growing reputation for great energy and community spirit, the 2011 Gobble Hobble raised an amazing $21,305 to help victims in our community through Neighborhood Youth and Family Counseling (NYFC).

And who can forget that finish line spread โ€” water, bananas, bagels, California Dried Plums, and Pirateโ€™s B***y โ€” a perfect mix for every type of runner! ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿฅฏ

It was also the first year our race timing chips moved from our shoes to our bibs, bringing Gobble Hobble into the modern running era.

โ€” The 2010 Gobble Hobble Turns 5!

The Fifth Annual Richardson Gobble Hobble on November 20, 2010, marked a major milestone โ€” our 5th anniversary! ๐ŸŽ‰

To celebrate, we unveiled a brand-new logo featuring the Eisemann Center โ€” a nod to the heart of Richardson and the perfect backdrop for this growing community tradition.

๐Ÿ“ธ Throwback to the 2009 Gobble Hobble โ€“ Smiles, Sunshine, and... Dried Plums?

The Fourth Annual Richardson Gobble Hobble on November 21, 2009, was one to remember! Nearly 900 participants filled Galatyn Park for another beautiful morning of running, walking, and giving back โ€” all benefiting Neighborhood Youth and Family Counseling (NYFC) and their incredible work supporting victims through the Richardson Police Department. ๐Ÿ’™

We celebrated with our biggest running group in Gobble Hobble history - Girls on the Run - DFW Metroplex! Also, our future Richardson Mayor Amir Omar was a participant! And, this was the year our race-day snacks took a fun twist โ€” thanks to our unique sponsor, California Dried Plums, who handed every finisher a little purple bag of energy (and a good laugh!). ๐Ÿ˜…

These classic photos capture it all โ€” the bright shirts, finish line smiles, and that unmistakable Gobble Hobble spirit that keeps us coming back year after year. ๐Ÿฆƒ๐Ÿ’›
