🦃🏃 Start Thanksgiving with a Run That Gives Back!

Before the turkey, stuffing, and pie, lace up your running shoes and kick off Thanksgiving morning with a little movement and a lot of heart!

Join us on Thursday, November 26, 2026, for a Thanksgiving Day run benefiting Love Chapel. Whether you run, jog, or walk, you’ll be starting the holiday by supporting an organization that makes a difference right here in our community. This year’s 5K is being organized by Columbus North High School seniors Emma Lowther, Tristan Works, and Adira Sluder as their senior project.
