Turkey Trot Mooresville NC and Angels & Sparrows Family Fun 5K

Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and that means time to start thinking about a few things to do to get you in the holiday spirit. One of the more laudable tasks is to register for a few fun and frolicsome events like the annual Angels & Sparrows Family Fun 5k “Turkey Trot” in Birkdale in Huntersville, and the 12th annual Christian Mission Turkey Trot 5K in downtown Mooresville.

There’s no doubt that these are worthy of your participation, but you might be looking for a little something different. Here are a few ideas to consider:

The most exciting thing about these events is that you can participate without spending a fortune on entry fees and race day costs.

For example, the newest edition of the aforementioned 5k is free to join and features a festive pre-race kickoff party with plenty of goodies to go around.

A nice warm and sunny Thanksgiving day is just around the corner, so you might be in the mood to test your stamina at one of these events.

The best way to find out which event is for you is to check out the official website. You can sign up for a 5K or a half-marathon online or in person at the local running store.
