From the Organizer
2026 is year FOURTEEN! We are excited to return to the Village at Robinson Farm for this momentous edition of Turkey Dash. This could just be the best celebration yet!
The foundation of Turkey Dash is family and friends, so we offer a 4-mile timed run/walk and a 1-mile fun run/walk on Thanksgiving morning. If you register for the 4-mile, you can run/walk the 1-mile at no additional cost!
We also provide a "Family Village," with bounce houses and other activities for the kids so they are entertained waiting for Mom & Dad to run. This is also a great place to take pics, just remember to use the tag #TurkeyDashCLT
