About this race
Join us for our 21st Annual Goldsboro YMCA Turkey Trot. Come start your Thanksgiving Day off right by supporting this benefit run/walk. Proceeds from this event will provide support to our community outreach programs here at the Goldsboro Family YMCA.
For this year's Turkey Trot, we will be offering a timed 5K Run/Walk and a 1 Mile Run/Walk.
The 5K event will start at 8:00 am on Thanksgiving Day, November 26th and the 1-mile Fun Run/Walk will start at 8:10am. What a great way to spend Thanksgiving morning with family and friends! Once you cross the finish line, we welcome you to cheer on the other participants.
**Please note that T-shirts are only guaranteed to those who register before November 6th and sizes are based on availability from our vendor.
