This is a drive-through packet pickup. You will remain in your vehicle. We encourage everyone to pick up their packet on this day to avoid the rush on race day. You may have someone pick up your packet for you. Please provide your race bib number when picking up your packet.
NOTE: This is not the location of the race start. The race start is across from Warwick High School.

Register 4 or more participants at the same time and receive $5 off per registrant.

We are again excited that Ferguson Enterprises and its employees from across the country will join us virtually and help achieve our fundraising goals. If you are a Ferguson employee, please visit https://runsignup.com/Race/VA/NewportNews/FergusonCaresTurkeyTrot to register. 

Each participant that registers by November 8, 2024 will receive a long-sleeve, ring-spun soft cotton blend shirt in their requested size. Participants that register after November 8, 2024 will receive a shirt based upon size availability.

Unclaimed shirts will not be mailed.

Chip timing will be used to score the event. Your time will begin when you pass through the starting line sensors. The top ten overall male and female finishers will be determined by the gun time, not the chip time. 

Final results will not be posted until Sunday, December 1. Preliminary results can be found here.

Membership dues include On Your Mark, (the club's newsletter), social activities such as our General Membership Meetings and Annual Awards Banquet, and the chance to earn discounts on our club races. And best of all, you will meet others who share your passion for running.

Since the vast majority of race costs are incurred prior to a race and are non-refundable, we do not issue refunds for the event.​

In the event you are unable to participate, you have two options:
1) Defer your entry to next year's race. Deferrals will be required to pay for their shirt for next year's race.
2) Transfer your entry to another runner. This must be done by November 8, 2024.
