Earn that pumpkin pie! Participate in the Thanksgiving Day 10K Run/Walk!

Posted to Marc Krebs

Each year, thousands of Greater Cincinnati runners and walkers burn enough calories beforehand to justify a big Thanksgiving meal. One of the most popular and historic running events in the area, the 99th Annual Thanksgiving Day 10K starts at 9:00 AM on Thursday, November 27.

The race begins and ends at Paul Brown Stadium, and the 6.2-mile course winds up Main Street, across Central Parkway, and down Eggleston before participants head back along the Clay Wade Bailey Bridge.

Water is available at several spots along the course, and there are plenty of snacks for refueling after finishing. Goodies from McDonalds, Kroger, Trauth Dairy, Alpine Valley, and Tradewinds Organic Tea will hold over these early-morning athletes until they can dig into a big Thanksgiving meal later on.
Register now, and prepare to bundle up and get a healthy start to one of America's most nourishing holidays! You won't feel the least bit guilty about that second helping of green bean casserole!
