All participants sign a waiver stating, “I understand that bicycles, skateboards, baby joggers, roller skates or blades , or animals are not allowed in the race and I will abide by this guideline. Use of headsets is strongly discouraged.”
Please adhere to these guidelines and follow all instructions from race officials.
Walking Strollers
Walking Strollers
As a family event, the Turkey Trot will allow participants to walk with strollers as long as you place yourself at the back of the green corral for the five mile event or at the back of the yellow corral for the one mile event. For the safety of your child as well as your fellow participants, absolutely no strollers of any kind will be allowed in the red or blue corrals.
Minimum Pace
Minimum Pace
In order to re-open the roads in a timely manner, if you have not reached Rt. 25 by 9:30am, you will be directed north and will not pass through Rice Field. This point is approximately 2 1/4 miles into the race and would be a 22 minute per mile pace. Thank you for your cooperation!
