Event summary

Get ready to kick off your Thanksgiving Day in style at the Fleet Feet Free Thanksgiving Day 5k Fun Run on Thursday, November 28, 2024, in beautiful San Diego! This family-friendly event invites participants of all ages to join in a morning filled with running, walking, and giving thanks before enjoying the delicious feasts and football later in the day. The informal 5k will start at 8 AM, and for those looking for a shorter distance, a marked turnaround will offer a 1-mile option.

Even if you miss out on the free t-shirt, additional shirts can be ordered online before November 13.

So gather your family, lace up your running shoes, and join us for a memorable Thanksgiving morning filled with fun, fitness, and philanthropy!

This event is FREE! As in years past, we are asking for donations of canned food for the San Diego Food Bank to benefit those in need. This year we are incredibly proud to be supporting our very own Kevin Hopp and the MOLLY'S ANGELS FOUNDATION. [https://www.mollysangels.org/] Over the course of Thanksgiving week, Kevin Hopp will be running 350 miles to raise funds for Mollys Angels Foundation and to support Monarch Schools, a lifeline for homeless youth, and Vista Hill, which provides crucial mental health, education, and social services. Join Kevin Hopp and his friends on this journey and help them reach their goal to make a lasting impact. Support his week of fundraising by joining the RUNGIVING SUPPORTING MOLLY'S ANGELS FOUNDATION STRAVA GROUP [https://www.strava.com/clubs/rungiving], where each mile run earns $1 donated with a goal of reaching $25,000! Donations can also be made directly through HOPPCANTSTOPP.COM! [https://www.hoppcantstop.com/]
