From the Organizer
Join us for North Ogden's FOURTH ANNUAL Turkey Trot, hosted by The Hobbyjogger Project!
The race will begin at 8 AM at McGriff Park (2950 N 900 E, North Ogden, UT 84414). Parking will be available in the church parking lot to the south of the park.
The race is a 2-lap course (1.5 miles per lap). The race can be run as an individual 5K, or as a 2-person relay (1 lap each). We will have the timing set up to take individual splits for relay runners, as well as total time for teams and individuals.
If registering as a relay, each participant will register independently and then input the same Team Name so we can link you.
Prizes consist of pies and... more pies. Come win a pie!
Shirts will be available while supplies last.
Bib pickup will be Wednesday (the night before the race) from 4:30-6:30pm at the McGriff Park Bowery (right next to the start/finish line). PLEASE try to pick up bibs the night before, if at all possible. If we have extra shirts for late registrants, those will be given out to those who come to packet pickup Wednesday, on a first-come first-serve basis. Awards will begin at 8:45am after the race.
Can't wait to see you there!
