TurkeyBurner 5K
TurkeyBurner is the annual running and walking event hosted by Running2bWell on Thanksgiving morning, November 26, 2026, at Hinckley Reservation in Hinckley, Ohio. The event is the 16th edition and includes a paved, scenic course that loops counterclockwise around Hinckley Lake.
The event offers two distances and a separate 1 mile fun run. The start and finish are at the South Ball Fields parking lot on East Drive, and the route follows the paved bike path. Volunteers will be staffed at road crossings. One mile participants turn around at the corner of Bellus and East. A water stop is located at about the 1.5 mile mark just past the boat house.
Participants receive a custom long-sleeved race shirt and a finisher medal. Awards for 5K age-group winners include custom winter hats. Parking is limited near the start and finish; additional parking is available at the Spillway and Sledding Hill areas. Early packet pickup is available the day before the event at 2425 Medina Road, Medina, OH. Registration is limited to 1,000 participants.
Proceeds benefit Running2bWell, a Northeast Ohio nonprofit that supports mental health and addiction recovery through exercise, education, and community. Fundraising incentives include registration refunds and additional rewards for fundraisers who reach specified targets. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
