Give Thanks 8K

About the race

Get ready to lace up and hit the pavement for Athens’ beloved Thanksgiving tradition – The Give Thanks 8k! Kick off your Thanksgiving holiday with gratitude, fun, and community spirit. The race begins at 8:30 AM, followed by the Kids Fun Run at 10:00 AM, so there’s something for everyone. Before gathering around the table, come together with friends and neighbors to support the Athens Community Council on Aging – because after all, turkey, I mean aging, well, we’re all doing it! Sign up to run or volunteer today!
