Galloping Gobbler 5K/10K and 15K Challenge

About the Event

The biggest running day in America is almost here! Join us this THANKSGIVING DAY as we celebrate our 14th year of the Galloping Gobbler!

Last year, our 15K Challenge was a huge success, and we’re bringing it back! Complete the 10K at 8:00 AM and the 5K at 9:30 AM to be eligible for overall and age group awards.

Event Schedule:

8:00 AM: 10K & 15K Challenge Start

9:30 AM: 5K Start

Enjoy a fast course, snacks, cotton candy, and warm drinks after the race! The 5K and 10K are chip-timed and support a great cause—the Friday Backpack Program by Hope Alliance of Missouri, helping feed youth in Rolla. Look for food donation boxes at the event!

Registration Includes:

5K & 10K: Chip-timed, technical T-shirt, finisher medals, overall and age group awards. Walkers are welcome!

15K Challenge: One shirt, one bib, three finisher medals!

Kids Drumstick Dash: Free entry with finisher medals!

Note: The Kids Dash is usually held twice to accommodate parents running the 5K or 10K.
