The Franklin Turkey Trot benefiting GraceWorks is back again
on Thanksgiving Day 2024!
Now in its 25th year, this Thanksgiving Day tradition is a family feel-good, do-good time. Over 3,300 participants run/walk the 10k, 5k, or Kids' Turkey Chase through the heart of Cool Springs. Many of their friends and family stand on the sidelines to cheer them on. Each Trotter crosses the finish line knowing that a local family now has Food, Shelter, and Support because they ran for GraceWorks.
Pricing:
10K: $50
5K: $45
Kids Turkey Chase: $15
If you register a team of 4 or more adults you will receive a $5 discount on each registration fee.
Please note: Tennessee law now requires that online prices be displayed up-front, including any taxes or third-party processing fees. Since this platform (Race Roster) has a processing fee, the price on the registration form will show the sum of the processing fee and the race fee as one total. REGISTRATION RACE FEES FOR THE 2024 FRANKLIN TURKEY TROT BENEFITING GRACEWORKS HAVE NOT CHANGED. THE REGISTRATION RACE FEES ARE THE SAME AS LAST YEAR.
PEER-TO-PEER FUNDRAISING
Trotters have the option to help GraceWorks raise additional funds by inviting family, friends, and co-workers to donate. Simply agree to fundraise when you register and you are set to have the opportunity to win fabulous prizes! The more you raise, the more prizes you win!
