Counter the tendency to pack on the pounds at the holidays with The Gobbler's Run of Wake Forest.  And, start a new tradition by gathering your friends and family to join Chiropractic Partners at this event on  Thanksgiving Day for fun and fitness.

The 5K run will begin at 8:00am on November 22 at the Boys and Girls Club in Wake Forest. 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. The Run keeps the fun coming with prizes that anyone can win, including Best Costume, 404th place, Birthday Turkey, Fastest Stroller and many, many more. Register here  for this inexpensive run, plus kids 5 and under are free!

Last year the race attracted nearly 2,200 participants and raised $30,000 for the Boys and Girls Club of Wake Forest. This year's race will feature professional chip timing using the Jaguar "disposable bib-chip" timing system provided by Precision Race (www.precisionrace.com ). Race results will be available through on-site touch screen kiosks, text messaging, a QR code and online. Register early to avoid price increases.
