From the Organizer

We are bringing back the Turkey Drive Pub Run in 2026! Join us on Tuesday, November 24th, we'll meet at Sayville Running Company at 6pm, run some miles, and head over to The Sayville Inn to enjoy a free drink on the house. We just ask that you bring a turkey (10lb. max) to donate.  

If you'd like to make an additional contribution there is an option to donate money as well when you register. That money will be used to cover any shortfall in turkeys or to add other Thanksgiving food items.  We'll buy this food from local grocery stores, and deliver them to the shelter ahead of Thanksgiving day.  Any money or food collected above what the shelter needs will be distributed to local food pantries.

The run will be anywhere from 3-7 miles.  It will not be timed as it is a fun run, meant to get runners together to log some miles, donates some turkeys and have some fun. All runners and walkers are welcomed.
