NO DOGS ON THE COURSE – No matter how cute, kind and darling your dog is, the insurance we use does not allow for animals on the course. Please leave your dogs at home.
REGISTRATION AND BIB PICK-UP
WEDNESDAY NIGHT from 7:00-9:00 pm – Avoid the long lines on Thanksgiving morning and register, pick-up bibs, free sunglasses, etc.
THANKSGIVING morning from 6:30 – 7:30 am.
TIMER – We have hired a professional timer and we’ll be using timing chips.
RACE START
8:00 am Thanksgiving morning. Last year we were hesitant to close registration before the race because the line was so long. This year, it will close at 7:30 am. We really encourage you to register or pick-up your bib on Wednesday night.
RACE DAY PARKING
No parking on Jordan Road! We’ve gotten into some trouble for clogging Jordan Road. If the church parking lot is full, please park down the street on Pearly Lane or Burning Tree Road. We will have a van circling those streets offering rides until 7:50 am.

Free Raffle Items – We will be having a free raffle at the end of the race before the awards ceremony.
Free Breakfast – Breakfast items are available in the gym throughout the race. These items include muffins, bagels, fruit slices and beverages.
Registration Fee – Please consider the $20 registration fee instead of bringing canned goods so the Pantry can buy fresh food. If you bring non-perishables, please check the expiration dates on your donations; the Food Pantry must throw away any expired donation! Please don’t donate expired items.
Dress Warm – It looks like it will be a chilly morning!
