Just the trot - FREE

A little fresh air before the family asks what time the turkey will be ready. No shirt purchase required. Just sign up so we can count every head, turkey hats and all.

Trot + the turkey tee - $20 per person

Same 5K, with wearable proof you left the couch before the parade was over. Add an event shirt: festive now, excellent leftover-eating attire later. Shirt purchases are final and nonrefundable.

Turkey tees need a little planning: Order DEADLINE by Sunday, November 1st, 2026. NO EXCEPTIONS.

Choose your shirt size at signup: [confirmed adult/youth sizes and fit]

Collect your turkey tee: Will let racers know when shirts are in.

Bring the whole flock

Hosting family for Thanksgiving? Bring them along. Register everyone taking part, including children, and choose a shirt or no shirt for each person. Counting the whole flock. Yes, even the cousin who says they're "just coming to supervise." Set up one person's registration for each participant.

Before you flock to the start

Meet at the Boyette Park pool parking lot. Neighborhood route:

Waiver required for all participants; parent/guardian consent required for kids. Kids must stay with a responsible adult. Strollers are welcome; keep them under control and leave room for others to pass.

Paws before pies

Bring your pups! Our four-legged members are part of the family flock too. They're already dressed for Thanksgiving: stretchy fur pants. Keep dogs leashed and under your control, clean up after them, and never leave them unattended. No pup left behind, no surprise presents on the route.

If the weather gets fowl: We will cancel
