About this race

A race to honor one runner, and encourage many others.

Join us Thanksgiving morning for the 10th annual Friendsgiving Tyler Kreilter Memorial Run. Great for competitive runners and beginners, and everyone in between. You can run, walk, dance, or crawl your way to the finish line just like other family-friendly turkey trots.

  • Custom Finisher Medals
  • 5-year age group prizes for top male and female in each age group
  • Top finisher prizes for top male and female
  • Prize drawings (All participants and volunteers are eligible)

One mile race starts at 8:30 am, with the 5k starting at 9:00 am. Start and finish is in downtown Marine City, near the beach. All proceeds from this event go to the Tyler Kreilter Memorial Fund. The Fund provides scholarships and other support for Blue Water area runners. 

Registrations placed by Monday, November 17 will include a free long-sleeved T-shirt. 

Shirts can be ordered separately after November 17 to be delivered in early December.
