Website Registration

The Thanksgiving Turkey Gobble Trot in Memphis, hosted by The Best Races, is a family-friendly run/walk at Overton Park on Poplar Avenue. It offers 5K, 10K, and a half-marathon (13.1) distances, plus a virtual option and a Family 1 Mile Fun Run. The event emphasizes a small, private-group atmosphere with a stress-free setup and no timing chips, allowing timing to be tracked via personal apps and submitted online.

It uses limited-capacity waves (A, B, C) and ships swag to participants, including a shirt, a finisher towel or giveaway, and a medal. Additional perks include bibs on race day, online results, local running clubs, and charity initiatives. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
