Turkey Trot – Gobble Gobble


Thanksgiving Day
November 27 – Legion Park
Ready, Set, Go! Thanksgiving can start with a sprint with some family running fun. What’s better than a 5K run to get out there and rev up your body and get a good work out before diving into the turkey, mashed potatoes/cauliflower or cranberry whatever, and of course the pumpkin pie. All proceeds benefit MJC’s Track and Field and Cross Country Programs! This is a family friendly 3.1 mile course on a paved path with some grass and dirt. The 1/2 mile kids run will be on grass, 1/4 mile out and 1/4 mile back. No strollers, headphones, or dogs in the 5K run. The Gobbler Walk is an event for just walkers on the same 5k course where strollers/dogs are welcomed. Easy parking, easy run and a lot of fun. Check in begins at 7:30 am and races start 8:45 for the kids and ½ and 9:30 for the 5K. Overall male and female finishers will receive a medal. T-shirts will be provided to the first 500 entrants. Pre-reg closes Nov 25. Walk up after that runsignup.com/Race/CA/Modesto/MJCTurkeyTrot
