À propos de l'événement

We are so excited to host our 16th race!

A family event for a family day!  Thanksgiving is such a wonderful family time!  And a time of gratitude for all we have!

Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 28 @ 8:30 am at the Elkhart Health & Aquatics Center, 200 East Jackson, Elkhart IN.

PLEASE ARRIVE BEFORE 8:00AM

10K starts first at 8:30am, 5K at 8:35am, and the Mile Walk at 8: 38am following as soon as the 5K people are through the gates.

Pricing includes timed race entry fee for 10K and 5K, (The Mile walk is untimed), finisher medals for all who want them, and post race refreshments.  Custom shirts are optional and an additional $15.

There are hundreds of people (men, women and children) who rely on the Faith Mission homeless shelter for accommodations, clothing, training and food. And this race is the biggest fundraiser for the Mission! Please know that your participation makes a huge difference!

Come join us in the morning for some fresh air and movement, before your family festivities!  This is NOT intended to take up your entire morning- just come out- be with the community -  move a bit, work up an appetite and then get back to your plans! And remember to look out for those folks who might not have a place to go on Thanksgiving- and invite them to participate with you!  

ATTN GROUPS:  If you have a group of people (3 or more) you can register everyone all at once. Create a group name. One person can come to packet pickup and get the package of bibs/shirts/ etc. Please register by Friday, November 22 so that we have time to put the group bundles together.
