About the Caribou Turkey Trot 5k
The course heads out from the high school parking lot on Thanksgiving morning, following a road out and then doubling back to finish where it started. The terrain is straightforward, and the out-and-back shape means you pass other runners on their way out while you are coming back, which gives the whole thing a neighborly feel.
After the race, everyone moves into the high school ski building for refreshments and awards. Age category winners take home pies, which fits the day about as well as anything could.
