Der Thanksgiving Stuffing Stomp 5k & 10k ist ein Morgenlauf am Hains Point in Washington, DC. Hier gibt's kurze und längere Distanzen auf einer flachen Strecke. Start ist um 7:45 Uhr Eastern Time, direkt bei der Nation's Capital. Das ist eher ein entspannter Lauf für die Feiertagssaison, kein anspruchsvolles Trail- oder Berglauf-Event. Die Strecke verläuft auf dem Hains Point, einer flachen Halbinsel am Potomac River. Hier hat man Flussblicke und es gibt kaum Höhenmeter. Auch Geher und Kinderwagen sind erlaubt, was das Event auch über Wettkampfläufer hinaus interessant macht. Veranstalter ist Bishop's Events, Kontaktperson Travis Bishop. Wer nur am Merchandise interessiert ist und nicht vor Ort sein kann, kann auch virtuell mitmachen.

The event accommodates walkers and wheelchair athletes, and racewalkers compete for separate awards. The top three finishers in each race receive awards within 10-year age groups for men and women. Cranberry bread is part of the prize offerings. Warm refreshments are available post-race, and ample free parking is provided on-site.

The Turkey Trot Prediction Run is a Thanksgiving Day 10K in Columbia, Maryland. It starts and finishes at Jeffers Hill Neighborhood Center on Tamar Drive and is organized by Howard County Striders. The unique aspect is that speed is not the objective; runners aim to finish as close to 11:00 a.m. as possible. Participants select their own start time, and the runner whose finish time is closest to the 11:00 a.m. target wins. Because timing devices are prohibited, pacing relies on feel, judgment, and an accurate internal clock. The route follows an out-and-back path from Jeffers Hill down Tamar Drive toward Lake Elkhorn. Participants then run counterclockwise around the lake before returning via the same path. The total distance is approximately 10K, with about 265 feet of elevation gain and descent. The course was modified due to underpass construction that affected the previous route. Registration is available on race day only, with a straightforward on-site signup using laptops. Fees are modest for students and individuals. Strollers, headphones, iPods, and animals are not permitted, ensuring the event concentrates on runners' ability to read the course and their own pacing. Proceeds benefit the Tripp Scholar Athlete Fund.

The half marathon can attract up to approximately 2,000 participants. The event focuses on practicality, featuring well-supplied aid stations, course marshals, live text results post-race, and numerous food and beverage options near the start-finish area on the waterfront.
