As Thanksgiving Day approaches, we look forward to food, family and running in the annual holiday races that pop up everywhere. This year we have 3 races taking place over the holiday weekend, including 2 on Thanksgiving Day!
The first race is the ever-popular I Like Pie 2K, 5K & 10K that takes place in downtown Bend. The cost is only a $5 donation and a 5lb sack of groceries that benefits Neighborhood Impact. It’s recommended that you bring a pie to feed the masses and you are welcome to enter the pie contest as well!
When: Thursday, November 24th at 9am. Race starts at Mirror Pond Plaza behind FootZone.

When: Thursday, November 24th at 9am.
