The tradition continues VIRTUALLY this year, and still remains a great way to show your gratitude for your own health, support a great cause, and work up an appetite for your own Thanksgiving feast.

Funds raised from the annual Turkey Dash go directly to families in Northeast Ohio who are impacted by the financial burden of breast cancer treatments. Last year, over $30,000 was raised for the Foundation.

The race this year will have over 1500 runners and walkers moving through their own communities and neighborhoods. We hope that racers, their families and their friends will continue to enjoy a piece of pumpkin pie for breakfast or at the end of their race whenever they choose to complete their 5K and we look forward to seeing photos, hearing stories and extending the tradition in the best way we can this year.



Runners and walkers will receive a 2020 Custom Participation Medal along with a 2020 Virtual Race Sweatshirt.

Drive through packet pick-up will be Saturday November 21st 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. and Monday November 23rd 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at Wickens Herzer Panza Law Firm, 35765 Chester Road, Avon OH 44011.

There will be NO activities at Avon High School this year.

Special thanks to our race committee and chairwomen: Sharon Lerch and Mary Browning.
