Partners for Active Living hosts the 16th Annual United Community Bank Turkey Day 8K, a community run/walk on Thanksgiving morning in downtown Spartanburg. Since 2005, this event has become a tradition that encourages residents and visitors to balance healthy lifestyles with holiday festivities!

In light of COVID-19, we are taking extra precautions at the event this year. All participants must pre-register online; you will not be able to register on the day of the event. There are a limited number of spots available, and once filled, online registration will end. The registration fee requires a *$10 donation towards active living and healthy eating initiatives in Spartanburg County.

The race begins at Spring and Main Streets and will be a rolling start for all participants (i.e. there are no heats, when you arrive, you begin immediately). Participants should arrive between 6:30- 8:00 am, as determined by the participant, to run/walk the course and then leave when finished to avoid any congregating. Masks will be required before the start and after the finish of the race. Water will be available for participants at the finish line.

A limited number of Turkey Day long sleeve shirts are available for purchase and for the first (and only!) time, socks will also be for sale. Both items must be picked up before the event; there will be no on-site shirt or sock pick up. There will be no Turkey Day bibs this year.
We are very excited to offer this in person event to our community and appreciate all participants following the guidelines to ensure their safety and the safety of others. If COVID-19 numbers increase in the coming weeks, PAL reserves the right to cancel the event and will be in touch with all registrants.
*If you are unable to pay the registration fee, contact Lindsey Graham at lgraham@active-living.org for scholarship information.
