Turkey Trot Tune Up and Kid's Turkey Dash

About the Event

Join us for our 5th Annual Turkey Trot Tune Up to celebrate our 7th Anniversary! Trot off those race cob webs before the Turkey Trot races come through later in the month and enjoy a lovely run around Back Cove (3.5mi)! We also have a fun TURKEY DASH where kids(ages 2-9) will have turkey headbands and race a 100m before the start of the Tune Up Race.  Top 3 M / F / Non-Binary will receive their choice of Starting Line Gear!

Strollers and dogs on leash are welcome to join for the run! We kindly ask that you start at the back of the pack for everyone's safety :).

WITH YOUR REGISTRATION YOU'LL RECEIVE: 

We're excited to have WinterKids as your beneficiary again this year! They will receive 50% of proceeds and any additional raffle ticket sales on race day! 

As always, we'll be serving up our traditional post-race pancake breakfast! 

You'll also have the option to make a donation to WinterKids to support our race beneficiary.

Running, Pancakes, and Charity? Does it get any better?! We hope to see you there!
