Standard registration for the 4 mile entry includes electronic chip timing, an event shirt (sizes not guaranteed after 10/31), a high-quality finisher's medal, a chance to earn a free pie, free race photos, post-race refreshments, and entry into the Brooks shoe raffle if a runner beats the Turkey. Kid registrations include electronic chip timing, an event shirt (size not guaranteed after 10/31), free race photos, and post-race refreshments.
Registration pricing is tiered by date: the 4 mile fee is $35 through 8/16, $40 from 8/17 through 11/25, and $45 on race day if spaces remain. The kids 1 mile fee is $25 through 8/16, $30 from 8/17 through 11/25, and $35 on race day if spaces remain. Ticket sales end 11/25/2026.
