The YMCA Thanksgiving Leftovers Fun Run!
As part of our race community, you know how special race day gear can be! So here's a fun new twist!
We have some awesome leftover swag from past events, and we’re giving you the chance to snag a cool hat, shirt, or even a medal from previous races. If you missed out before (or just want another favorite), now’s your chance!
So gather your family or friends, lace up those sneakers, and come out for a festive 1 Mile or 5K that lets you earn that second slice of pumpkin pie the fun way.
Whether you’re a speedy sprinter, a casual stroller, or just in it for the fun swag, this race is all about laughter, community, and working off (or making room for) those holiday leftovers.
Pie first. Run later.
