Feaster Five
The Feaster Five is an annual Thanksgiving Day road race held in Andover, Massachusetts. The event includes in-person and virtual options and markets itself as family friendly, offering separate races for adults and children. Finishers receive a Table Talk apple pie while supplies last. The 39th edition is scheduled for Thursday, November 26, 2026, with Schneider Electric listed as the presenting sponsor.
The event runs a multi-day race expo at the Andover/North Andover YMCA for packet pick up and vendor booths in the days before the race. On-site bib pickup and race registration are available near the starting area at Bill Deluca Chevrolet on race morning. The kids program, called Sidney’s Rainbow Run, uses Balmoral Street track and includes three course lengths designed for different abilities, including an inclusive 60 meter course, a 400 meter track course, and a 1 km loop.
Proceeds from the Feaster Five support local beneficiaries, including Bellesini Academy, the Merrimack Valley YMCA, the Merrimack Valley Striders high school scholarship fund, and the Sidney Mae Olson Rainbow Fund. The race also lists a community partnership with the Dave McGillivray Finish Strong Foundation and offers prize awards and periodic store-credit drawings for finishers.
