Fairfax Turkey Trot: Move Your Feet Before You Eat
A lot of people have decided to take up running since the pandemic. It’s an ideal outdoor activity, a way to get away from your desk for a bit each day and breathe the fresh air, and a perfect option for working on your fitness. If you’re one of those people, it’s time to put your training to the test at the Fairfax Turkey Trot! This annual event is back in person this year on Thanksgiving morning, and the community couldn’t be more thankful to run for a great cause together.

You’ll, of course, get the obligatory 5K t-shirt to sport during or after the race. So let’s run together for a great cause and start Thanksgiving on the right foot.
