OUR MISSION:
The goal of the race organizers is to establish and continue a community tradition in Medway and surrounding towns for generations of residents, and also to provide needed funding to the Medway Public Schools Athletic Department. Much like the tradition of an annual high school football game, Thanksgiving road races have flourished in many New England communities.
We are proud to say that we attract over 1,000 runners and spectators per year, and that the race has grown to be a fun, festive tradition for not only Medway, but for many residents in the surrounding towns.
