Families planning to join Arlington’s Thanksgiving Turkey Trot have a registration price change coming after this weekend.
Arlington Runners Club is advertising $40 registration through Sunday, Nov. 15, then $45, according to its Nov. 13 announcement. Review the total at checkout before paying.
The annual 5K starts at 8 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 26, at Arlington Grocery Outlet, 123 E. Burke Ave. Proceeds benefit Salt of the Earth Food Blessing, giving the morning outing a way to support a local food program.
Race morning in Arlington
Packet pickup begins inside the store at 7 a.m., according to the official event page. That gives participants an hour before the scheduled start.
The out-and-back course leaves the Grocery Outlet parking lot, heads through Haller Park and Eagle Trail, then continues onto Dike Road to a turnaround and water station. Runners return along the same route. The course includes roads, trails and gravel.
Children ages 11 and younger can run free with a participating paid adult. Review the child-registration option when signing up so your family’s entries are recorded correctly.
Before you register
The club’s latest announcement says every participant, including children, will receive a commemorative race bib. Check the current registration options for shirt details and the final amount due.
Use the organizer’s registration page to sign up, and recheck the event details before race morning. You can also find the date, location and organizer link in our Arlington Turkey Trot calendar listing.
