28th Annual Scheels Turkey Trot

Sparks, NV
Sir Stuffy may look like the foreman of the year in his hard hat, but we'll leave the orange cones, jackhammers, and heavy equipment to the real construction crews! Thanks to the ongoing Sparks Boulevard widening project, our speedy 10K is taking another coffee break this year, but don't worry, it'll be back before you can say, "Road work ahead!" In the meantime, we're keeping the Turkey Trot fun rolling with our classic 2-mile loop around the Marina. It's the perfect route for taking in the views, enjoying the holiday atmosphere, and working up an appetite for pumpkin pie. Need a few more miles before you earn that second helping of stuffing? Just keep trotting! One more lap... or two... and you've got yourself a custom-distance Turkey Trot. To celebrate all the progress happening on Sparks Boulevard, we're inviting everyone to dress for the "job site." Break out your construction-themed gear—hard hats, safety vests, caution tape, tool belts, traffic cones (okay... maybe not actual traffic cones), or anything else that would make a construction crew do a double take. Our Special Events team will crown the participant with the most over-the-top construction outfit, and they'll hammer home a special prize. We can't wait to see your creative "work" in action! RACE DAY: 2 MILE EVENT: Non-timed event · Begins at 8:30am at the Marina Park Pavilion · 1 clockwise lap around the Sparks Marina Parking: Open parking will be available at the marina. Additional parking can be found next to Western Village, along the marina pathway. Strollers & Dogs: We encourage the use of jogging strollers along the route of this family-friendly event. However, out of consideration for other participants, dogs will not be allowed on the course (except for registered and licensed service dogs).

Race with Grace 5K AND 10K

Rochester, NY
The Race with Grace 10K Why RwG 3.0?The Race with Grace (RwG) 10K was established in 1991 as an outgrowth of the participation of several men in the Spencerport Canal Days races during the mid-1980’s. It had a two-fold purpose, the more important one being a community outreach. Secondarily, it was play on the current Pastor’s name, George Grace, who was a runner. In our inaugural year we had 185 registrants and 171 finishers. Our attendance peaked in 2015 when we celebrated our silver anniversary race with 1245 registrants and 1121 finishers. Over the race’s 31-year existence, a total of approximately 5,000 individuals have participated. Five men remain who have finished every single RwG and ran virtually in 2020. They are Stan Cipira, Bob Dyjak, Dave O’Leary, Ric Perry and Doug Ralph. The race established itself as one of the best races in western NY. It has consistently been named one of NY’s finest races by New England Runner magazine. In addition, it has been recognized as one of the cornerstone races in the Rochester Runner of the Year series. All proceeds, once race expenses are deducted, go to support C.U.R.E. Childhood Cancer Association. With the current race director stepping down due to work and family obligations, no clear choice for a successor, the race’s future appeared to be at crossroads. Thankfully, as the “door” on the race was quickly closing, the Rochester Running Company and Lakeshore Community Church agreed to manage and host this year’s race. About Lakeshore Community Church: Founded in 1995 by Vince and Sue DiPaola, Lakeshore Community Church exists to help people discover and develop a growing relationship with Jesus. It’s a place where you can be real, strengthen your relationships, and make an impact in our world. When you’re ready, check out Lakeshore for yourself; Sundays at 9 and 11am, in person and online at live.lakeshorechurch.org.
