Invesco QQQ Thanksgiving Day 2026

The Invesco QQQ Thanksgiving Day race series begins at Center Parc Stadium in Atlanta, offering runners a Thanksgiving morning selection of four distances: a 13.1-mile half marathon, a 5K, a mile, and short kids' dashes. The half marathon is for participants aged 14 and older, the 5K for ages 8 and older, the mile for ages 6 and older, and the Dash is for children 6 and under. The schedule is arranged for an early holiday morning, with the half marathon starting first, followed by the 5K, mile, and separate Dash starts for the youngest children. The Atlanta Track Club organizes the event as an Atlanta tradition and combines it with a food drive for the Atlanta Community Food Bank, requesting runners bring donations to number pickup to help provide meals for 2,500 local families. Half marathon and 5K finishers will get a long-sleeved adidas performance shirt and medal, while mile and Dash participants receive a medal and beanie.
