Running of the Turkeys 5k

The Running of the Turkeys 5k is a Thanksgiving Day tradition held in Downtown Roswell, Georgia. Participants can join a live, chip-timed 5k run/walk along Canton Street or opt for a virtual race throughout November. The event is family-friendly and stroller accessible, though pets are not allowed.

All runners receive a turkey-themed giveaway and a tri-blend long sleeve t-shirt. A special charity option donates 100% of entry fees to the Friends of Roswell Police, supporting local families in need. Early packet pickup is mandatory at multiple locations before race day.

The race fosters a festive atmosphere while benefiting the community. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
