About the Joyce Allen Great Turkey Escape

This is a road race that starts and finishes at the community center on Lonetown Road. The kids run goes off first, so families with younger runners can do both distances in the same morning. Proceeds go to local beneficiaries, which gives the whole event a purpose beyond the finish line.
