About the Race

Chattanooga's longest standing Thanksgiving road race returns this year at the Sportsbarn East for its 33rd running!!  

This historic family tradition road race and family walk is hosted by the Chattanooga Track Club, The Kidney Foundation of Greater Chattanooga and Chattanooga's longest standing and most beloved sports club, the Sportsbarn!

Please know that proceeds from our race help promote running and fitness through the Chattanooga Track Club and by providing direct support to our local community members who suffer with kidney disease through the efforts of The Kidney Foundation of Greater Chattanooga.

Hosted each year at the SportsBarn East, this event is all about health, and fun, so sign up now and start your Thanksgiving morning with a full-on 8k race or a more leisurely (non-competive) 3 mile family walk & fun run with your family and favorite furry four-legger!
