Norman Turkey Day 5K
About this race
The Norman Turkey Day 5K is a Norman tradition. Started by a few runners in Norman, they thought we need our own event close to home. This is the 15th year of the Turkey Day 5K. So come enjoy a run, walk or stroll through the streets of Norman to start your Thanksgiving Day. We start at Norman High School and end with a lap around the track, you will enjoy the comradery with your family and friends and get some exercise in before the turkey feast begins.
Grab your best turkey day costume gear and plan to bring the whole family to enjoy the 5K or 1 mile fun run/walk.
Participants will enjoy a long sleeve shirt & finisher medal.
**(shirt sizes are guaranteed if registered by Sunday 11-15, after that, until we run out)
