Event Description

This is a fun way to start your Thanksgiving Day! The cost is only $10 plus 1 non-perishable food item per participant. Unique awards for standard age groups. T-Shirt options are limited - they are leftovers from past races (thus the "recycle" name). This is a certified 5K course. There will be refreshments at The Landing afterwards.

Event details and schedule

The 5K run and walk will start at 8:00 on Thanksgiving morning at The Landing Park at 139 Brooks St. There are several public parking areas along Brooks St where you can park. There is only race-day packet pick up, so be sure to arrive early. The lines can get long 30 minutes before the start. The course is a certified 5K that follows Brooks St east, then north on Bay to a turnaround, then reverses to the finish at The Landing. Awards will follow the run/walk (about 9:30). There will be refreshments at the park when you finish. Be sure to bring 1 non-perishable food item per participant that will be donated to local food pantries.
