You will have one week from Saturday November 21, 2020 to Saturday 28, 2020 to run/walk/trot your 5K or Child's 1 mile where ever and whenever you want. You can run, walk or trot anywhere, indoor or on treadmill or outside on a 5K/1 mile route you know. You can also use USATF's route finder to find a certified 5K route close to where you live, https://legacy.usatf.org/routes.
Tech T-Shirts and Youth Large T-Shirts
Westborough Turkey Trot tech t-shirts (long sleeved, men's cut) are included with the 5K race entry fee until 11/6/20. T-shirts are only offered for 5k participants, the last day to register and be guaranteed a tech shirt with your registration is Tuesday 11/6/20, sizes may not be guaranteed. T-shirts (short sleeved) will be offered to 5K and 1 mile Child registrants in youth large (only) size. Youth 5K and 1 mile t-shirts are only guaranteed with registrations prior to 11/6/20.
How do I track my distance and time?
We will be accepting times by the honors system, so you can track your distance and time however you would like. The most accurate way to do this is by using a GPS watch but there are many free smart phone apps available (e.g. Strava, Garmin, Map My Run). Racewire will send you a bib number and online timing form to complete the week of 11/21/20. Using their bib number participants can log their times and race course (optional) on the form. All participants that log their time will appear on Racewire's online results page.
Food Drive
In the spirit of Thanksgiving please bring non perishable items, canned food or dry goods to the High School when you come to pickup your tech shirts. We will be collecting those items and donating them to the Westborough Food Bank. Thank you!
Fundraising and Donations
Please consider adding a donation to the Turkey Trot with your 5K registration. No contribution is too small to count! Thank you for making the Turkey Trot an important community and charitable event!
