Plymouth Thanksgiving Day Pilgrim 5K Run and Walk

Second Helping prize announced for Thanksgiving Day runners who participate in Thanksgiving Day Pilgrim 5k and the Plymouth Turkey Trot

November 15, 2012 //  by admin

PLYMOUTH, MA…

The reward for a second helping at Thanksgiving for most people is a nap on the couch and some extra time in the gym on Friday. For runners participating in the first ever Plymouth Turkey Trot and the Plymouth Thanksgiving Day Pilgrim 5k, the reward could be the coveted Giant Turkey Day trophy, featuring a turkey on top.

To be eligible, participants need to pre-register for both the Plymouth Turkey trot, which begins at 7:30am on Thanksgiving morning, and the Thanksgiving Day Pilgrim 5k, which starts at 9:30am. The male and female runners with the top combined times for the 4.77-mile Trot and the 5k will win the Giant Turkey Day trophy, which features a turkey on top.

“How many runners do you see run the course of a race they are about to run as a warm-up, then go out and run the race officially? With our Second Helping Challenge, the Turkey Trot can serve as a nice warm-up for the 5k,” said Steve Dubin, spokesperson for both the Thanksgiving Day Pilgrim 5k and the Plymouth Turkey Trot. “We’ve also got something for the other runners who go for seconds.”

All runners who register and compete in both the Plymouth Turkey Trot and the Thanksgiving Day Pilgrim 5k will receive a special hooded sweatshirt will receive a special hooded sweatshirt as well as prizes if they win their age group with combined times.

“Plymouth has been at the forefront of a number of Thanksgiving Day traditions, including the original one. With these two races on Thanksgiving morning, we’re creating another one—a morning run followed by a guilt-free Thanksgiving meal in the afternoon or evening,” said Dubin. “The Second Helping not only gives runners a little added incentive, but it makes  that second helping of mashed potatoes or extra slice of pumpkin pie taste that much better.”

The Plymouth Turkey Trot starts at Plymouth Rock at 7:30am. The 4.77 mile course offers scenic views of the Plymouth’s picturesque oceanfront, and passes several historical sites including Plymouth Rock, Burial Hill and The Mayflower. The cost to register is $25. Second Helping registrants must register online. Prizes will be awarded to men’s and women’s winners in several age groups.

For complete information, on the Plymouth Turkey Trot, visit www.plymouthturkeytrot.com.

The third annual Thanksgiving Day Pilgrim 5k kicks off from the Village Racquet and Fitness Center, at Pine Hills, 30 Gold Drive, Plymouth at 9:30 a.m. rain or shine on Thanksgiving morning. The course includes the oldest road in America, Old Sandwich Road. This race site was the original trail used by Pilgrims and Native Americans in the 1600’s as they traveled from Plymouth to Sandwich, Mass. Cost is $25.

All participants will receive a custom finishers’ medal.  T-Shirts, designed by professional graphic artists, will be given to all 1,000 runners.

Gobbling up runners and rave reviews. Second annual Plymouth Thanksgiving Day Pilgrim 5K Run and Walk set for November 24.

August 19, 2011 //  by admin

PLYMOUTH, MA…

Last year’s inaugural Plymouth Thanksgiving Day Pilgrim 5K Run and Walk attracted a flock of more than 550 runners.  This second year event is expected to greatly expand and will be limited to the first 1000 runners. 

The race kicks off from the Village Racquet and Fitness Center, at Pine Hills, 30 Gold Drive, Plymouth at 9 a.m. rain or shine on Thanksgiving morning. The course includes the oldest road in America, Old Sandwich Road in Plymouth and offers some the beautiful ocean, forest and historic site vistas along the well groomed dirt road.  This race site was the original trail used by Pilgrims and Native Americans in the 1600’s as they traveled from Plymouth to Sandwich, Mass. 

Cost is $25 online until November 22 and $30 thereafter and on race day from 7:30 a.m. to 8:45 a.m.

All kids will receive a finishers’ medal.  Top 3 male and female runners will receive cash ($500, $250 and $100 respectively).  The first 100 finishers will receive gift certificates worth $10 to $75 each. T-Shirts, designed by professional graphic artists, will be given to all 1,000 runners.

The course is flat and exceptionally fast.  Last year many runners reported running their annual “PR” (personal record) on this course.

“What could be more fun, more appropriate and better for digestion than a Thanksgiving run in America’s hometown Plymouth,” suggested Craig Valentine Brenner, race director and founder.  He added, “As a runner, I know the joy of running a dirt road in a pack of other enthusiastic runners.  This is a great way to kick off a healthy holiday.”

Sponsors include The Cleanist, Bayside Runner, Village Racquet and Fitness Center, Brenner Signs, Cape Olio and Rye Tavern.

For complete information visit the www.ThanksGivingDayPilgrim5k.Yolasite.com. The race also has pages on Facebook and Twitter. If you or your company is interested in sponsoring the race, please contact Craig Valentine Brenner at 617-680-4230 or runosrr@gmail.com.
