Piedmont Turkey Trot Challenge
Covid-19 has thrown the world in new and often uncomfortable directions.
Given local health directives,
the Piedmont Turkey Trot will not be held live this year. However, The Trot is putting its
best shank forward, and will carry on the spirit of the Piedmont Turkey Trot--virtually!
The Piedmont Turkey Trot Challenge will be a virtual scavenger hunt. Run or walk the streets of Piedmont to find the Sponsored Piedmont Turkey Trot Lawn signs in various gardens around town. Snap a selfie with the sign, upload to our Instagram account #piedmontturkeytrot and be entered into a drawing for prizes. Find and post all 49 Signs and increase your chances for a win!
If you are looking to move your feet a little faster, participants may also upload their 5k time for bragging rights at their (smaller, yet mighty) Thanksgiving table! Link to upload your results will be sent with your registration.
We can still trot the beautiful fall roads of Piedmont at your own pace this Thanksgiving.
We will miss gathering together on Thanksgiving morning but we will see you on Instagram!
Lawn signs will be up from November 8th – November 28th.
