Before you gather to eat, gather to move with your feet! All ages and paces are welcome as we host both a 5K trek and a 1K trot!

This Thanksgiving day, family friendly event provides the opportunities for families to enjoy fall in Fayetteville as our race course goes from iconic Downtown Fayetteville onto the Razorback greenway and through Wilson Park!

The Spark Foundation is all about encouraging our community to get active and stay active. In keeping with our mission we have eliminated age group awards for the Turkey Trot, we want the person who motivates you to be, YOU!

We want to thank our friends at Natural State Running Club for supporting the Pay-Your-Age portion of this year's race!
