The Jim Allen Group presents the 14th Annual Gobbler’s Run 5K on November 28, 2019.
With all proceeds benefiting the Boys & Girls Club, this family-friendly Thanksgiving Day event is a great way to bring families together and support the community. The 3.1 mile loop is an easy stroll through downtown and historic Wake Forest. Push your kids or bring your dog – strollers and pets are welcome. You’ll get a race t-shirt and be able to eat more turkey without the guilt!
