Organiser's Description

This is the EARLY BIRD RACE...SATURDAY 11/22/2025 IN KENNESAW.

We are excited to bring back our Turkey Trot events for 2025!~ Guidelines will be the same as prior, please note the specific dates in order to qualify for a complimentary race entry!

If you haven't crossed under our finish line this year...that's OK too...You can still come out and join us...it's just $21($25 Race Day), in-person or virtual.

Swag available for purchase: Awesome Shirts $22, Hoodies $27 & Finisher Medals available for just $7.50!

Two weeks before Thanksgiving in 2011, we decided that we wanted to give back to all the participants who came out to race with us over the course of the year. Thanksgiving morning seemed to be the perfect time, and giving them a FREE race would be the perfect way to say thanks. We're continuing that tradition...If you've crossed under our finish line in any race from DEC. 1, 2024 - NOV. 14, 2025, you've earned yourself a FREE 5K spot in ONE of the in-person Turkey Trot races. (PLEASE NOTE THE DATES. RUNNING ONE OF OUR TURKEY TROTS LAST YEAR DOES NOT QUALIFY FOR A FREE ENTRY.)

BACK AGAIN THIS YEAR...THE Early Bird Race. Everything will be the same as Thanksgiving Day, but we're letting you race on Saturday November 22nd in Marietta/Kennesaw, if you want to.

THAT'S THIS RACE YOU ARE ABOUT TO REGISTER FOR!
