Walkers are welcome for both the 1 mile walk and the 5K. Come one, come all! If you can't walk the full 5K, there is a turnaround for the mile. Walkers/strollers/dogs etc. please start near the back! There is one official start at 7:30am however those near the back will cross the official start line around 7:35am – your chip time will not start until you cross the official start line. Start line will stay up for 8 minutes after "runners set, go!" and then be pulled.
Our kids races are free, but do NOT include a shirt! A parent must sign them up here in order to agree to the waiver. Medals are given to our kids, but likely a medal from a past Thanksgiving Day GCR race.
This beautiful course will start on 5th Avenue & wind through downtown Naples!!
Plenty of FREE parking (multiple 4 story parking garages within 200m of packet pickup).
Shirts to all paid participants!
Race Medals to all finishers!

St. Matthew's House and our Youth Development/ Scholarship Fund.
We are collecting canned goods for St. Matthew's House. Please bring your non-perishable items to packet pick-up or to the registration area on the day of the race.
This run/walk will be a GREAT way to start your Thanksgiving weekend!
