About this adventure

Arnold's Thanksgiving morning race starts and finishes in Arnold City Park, run by the City of Arnold with Arsenal Credit Union. Grown-ups and older kids can do the 5K, while younger children get their own free half-mile kids run, so the whole family can be on the course before the turkey goes in. Children's entry costs nothing, but every runner, kids included, has to be registered in advance through the race's online sign-up. Adult 5K entry goes up in November, and race swag is promised only while it lasts, so signing up early pays. Dress in layers for a late-November morning and plan to arrive early for packet pickup and parking at the park.
