GIVEAWAY The first 600 participants who registered will get a 2026 Turkey Trot BEANIE HAT. The first 400 to register will also get a favorite tradition classic sealed envelope! Bring your sealed envelope back to Terra Running Company between Friday, November 27-Sunday, November 29 for a Terra employee to open. Every envelope is a winner! You could win shoes, t-shirts, stickers, coffee, hats, and other great merch! If you registered after we ran out of hats or envelopes, that will be indicated on your registration form.
