Running of the Turkeys

Thu November 28, 2024 Greensboro, NC 27455 US Directions

3.5 Mile Run/Walk (Timed) & Family Fun Run/Walk (Untimed)

 

 

*See the 3.5 mile course map below, as well as turn by turn directions for both the 3.5-mile timed event and the 2-mile family fun walk/run. The course is completely closed to vehicle transportation and entirely paved, making it a perfect event for all!

With safety and fun in mind for all participants we have updated our course routes. The start and finish for all events has moved into Jaycee Park! This brings all the energy of the start/finish, pooch parade, awards and engagement into ONE fun filled space!

The 2-mile family fun walk/run untimed participants will depart first. They will complete a clockwise loop around the lake to finish where they started. Our timed participants are now completing a 3.5 mile event! This new route will have the 3.5 mile participants starting the same direction as the fun run/walk but, exiting the park from Nathaniel Greene and making a left onto Lawndale. When runners re-enter the park from Ormond Road they will travel back to the start line in a counterclockwise direction. 

These updates will provide YOU with a better race day experience!
