Research shows that runners struggle to maintain fitness during the holiday season due to limited race options and family commitments. This Turkey Trot addresses both challenges by providing structured training goals and family-friendly race distances on Thanksgiving morning.
The three-distance format accommodates runners of varying abilities, with the half-marathon starting at 7:30 AM, followed by 10K participants at 7:35 AM, and 5K runners at 7:40 AM. All races begin and finish at Life Fellowship Church in Cornelius, creating a centralized hub for participants and spectators. The event also includes a virtual run option for remote participants.
A representative for the race said, "We've created something special that brings families together while supporting local food security through our partnership with Human Health Project. It's about more than just running."
The half marathon course features two loops on certified asphalt roads, accommodating runners who need up to 3.75 hours to complete the distance. Early registration incentives encourage participation, with prices increasing on September 1st, October 1st, November 1st, and November 24th. Half marathon finishers receive exclusive hoodies when registering by October 20th.
Awards recognize the top three male and female finishers overall, plus age group categories across all distances. The event's medal has earned recognition as among North Carolina's finest finisher awards. Additional race swag includes technical t-shirts, cups, and beanies for all participants.
The beneficiary partnership with Human Health Project encourages participants to bring non-perishable food items, supporting local food shelters during the holiday season. Digital currency payment options reflect the organization's modern approach to registration and donations.
