Organiser's description

Join Kristina from Fit4Mom as she guides you through the Westfield Turkey Trot 5 Mile route. OPEN TO ALL AGES, GENDERS, ABILITIES, AND PACES. (Please note, runners under 18 must be accompanied by a parent who runs with them throughout the course.) Come and meet fellow Trotters before event day, learn the course, and ask questions about how to complete your training. This is a FREE event, but please RSVP so we know to expect you. Bagels, juice, and water will be provided after your run!

Please keep in mind that your leader will be keeping an approximate pace of 9-10 minutes per mile. If you would like to run faster or slower, printed maps and the link to our MapMyRun will be provided so you can follow the turns along the residential streets unguided.

Meet at the large parking lot for the tennis courts/restrooms which is about 3/4 of the way around the park if you enter from the main Lamberts Mill Rd. entrance. The park can be very busy on weekends and parking may be limited. Please arrive early to ensure you find parking (which may need to be in a different lot or on the surrounding streets) and meet the group prior to the start time.
