Troutman Gobbler Run 5K
About this race
Get ready to lace up for a cause this Thanksgiving Day at the first annual Troutman Gobbler Run 5K — proudly presented and sponsored by the Troutman Ruritan Club!
This brand-new community tradition invites runners and walkers of all ages to kick off their holiday with a healthy, festive 5K through Troutman. When you participate, you’re doing more than earning an extra slice of pumpkin pie — all proceeds go directly back into the Troutman community, supporting vital local initiatives such as:
- Scholarships
- Community service projects
- Family assistance
- Domestic violence support
- Elderly assistance
Join your neighbors, make lasting holiday memories, and help us build a stronger Troutman — one step at a time!
🦃 What Every Gobbler Gets:
- A sweet turkey finisher medal to proudly wear at the dinner table
- An exclusive race shirt featuring a turkey who clearly realized what day it is — basically a tuxedo for Thanksgiving
- A swag bag filled with treats and snacks
Same-day registration will be available.
🏆 Awards:
- Overall Top 3 Male and Female runners
- 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place medals in each age category (male & female)
