Run the race before you stuff your face!
That’s the motto of the 19th annual Turkey Trot.
The family and pet friendly 5K Run/Walk organized by the Valley Chamber will take place on Thanksgiving Day on Nov. 24
There’ll be two waves beginning at 9:30 a.m. and 10 a.m. And there will be cool swag for the first 500 people to register. Chamber Director Mike McKenna said about 600 Turkey Trotters turned out last year.
This year’s trot will start and end at Hailey Town Square on West Croy Street between the Hailey Public library and the old Rialto Hotel, now The Barkin’.
Entry fee is $25 per individual, $15 for youth 10 and under and $60 for a family of four. Book online at www.valleychamber.org and pick up your race number at the Chamber Welcome Center near the Hailey Skatepark between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday through Wednesday.
