The annual Run Now Gobble Later 5K is back!!!

All ages welcome! Run, jog, or walk this 5K to prep for that Thanksgiving feast.

Everyone registered gets a race shirt & participation ribbon

Top 3 finishers get to bring home a whole Butterball turkey! There will be additional prizes to win from event sponsors.

We will have snacks, water/coffee for before and after the race.

Is the race timed?

There is a race clock at the start/finish line, however no official race results are posted or tabulated for the event. This is a family fun run so we draw serious runners, but we also have many runners/walkers that are not quite so serious.
