About this race
Celebrate Thanksgiving by making a difference!
Join us for the 22nd Annual Gold's Gym Turkey Day 5K, one of West Tennessee's favorite Thanksgiving traditions. Last year, more than 900 runners came together, and we're excited to welcome 1,000+ participants this year as we run, walk, and give back to our community.
Every step you take helps support RIFA, whose mission is more important than ever. Many children in Madison County face food insecurity, and almost half of Jackson households live in poverty or struggle to earn enough to meet basic needs. Your participation helps RIFA provide food, hope, and essential services to local families when they need them most. Together, we can help ensure that no neighbor has to wonder where their next meal will come from. Learn more..
