About this adventure

Now celebrating more than two decades on Thanksgiving morning, the MUST Ministries Gobble Jog is Cobb County's largest holiday tradition, attracting over 10,000 runners, walkers, and costumed families to historic Marietta Square. The vibrant event offers timed 10K and 5K courses (both Peachtree Road Race qualifiers), an untimed 5K/1K family walk, and the wildly popular 'Tot Trot'—a spirited 50-yard sprint around Glover Park for little turkeys ages 5 and under. Strollers and wagons are enthusiastically accommodated in the untimed waves, making it easy to bring toddlers and grandparents along scenic tree-lined avenues of antebellum architecture. 100% of event proceeds directly power MUST Ministries' emergency food pantries, family shelters, and workforce development across metro Atlanta.
