Route Map

Join hundreds of walkers and runners, individuals and families for a 5K jaunt along the Silverbell Trail, Dick & Willie Passage and through UpTown Martinsville. The run begins at 9:00 a.m. in front of the Martinsville YMCA on Starling Avenue and finishes in the YMCA side parking lot.

Overall awards will be given for the top three male and female participants, master, and grand master.  Age group awards will be given to the top three male and female finishers in ten year age groups beginning with 9 and under, and ending with 60 and over.  For those registering in the family division there will be special awards for the top three families crossing the finish line as a group.  The first prize includes a Calphalon roasting pan, turkey shaped baster, and a large turkey shaped cutting board.

Registration is required for each individual participating in the run and is $20 until November 18, and $25 from November 19 to race day.  Get $2 off each registration (only available with paper registration) when you register on or before November 18 and turn all registrations in together.  Your entry fee gets you awesome race swag -- Turkey Day 5K pot holders made right here in Martinsville by Mollie's Originals, a Turkey Day 5K Dish Towel, delicious post race snacks including crisp apples and homemade ginger snaps, and a finisher's award.  You get a chance to win a turkey, pumpkin, acorn, or maple leaf shaped cutting board.
