What is better on Thanksgiving Day than starting out with a fun 5K? Get ready for your turkey and potatoes with friends through the streets of Ames! The course will weave you from beautiful downtown Ames through some of the best parts of our Cyclone city and finish right back where we started. Enjoy a family-friendly 5K open to all ages, speeds, and abilities! There will be fun vibes and refreshments for everyone at the finish line to enjoy before heading home for your Thanksgiving fun! Every participant gets a race t-shirt to commemorate the excitement, and a finisher's medal to celebrate the accomplishment! 

Packet Pickup will be at Fitness Sports - Ames on Wednesday 11/27 from 4pm-6pm and Thursday morning from 7:30am-8:45am. We highly encourage as many participants to pickup their own packets on Wednesday to reduce wait times and to enjoy the special offers, deals, and coupons given by our amazing race sponsors including Fitness Sports, Ames Fitness Center, the Iowa Turkey Federation, Clayton Farms Salads, Woodruff Construction, and Hazel Creative!
