I Thought Turkeys Could Fly 5k 2026

The I Thought Turkeys Could Fly 5k is a November 5K held in Dunn, North Carolina. It starts at 8:00 a.m. on North General Lee Avenue, near Tyler Park. The race begins and ends in the same location and is chip-timed, providing runners with an official recorded result. The certified course is designed for speed, featuring only 56 feet of elevation change and a downhill finish. This marks the race's second year, and its proceeds benefit the local Toys for Tots chapter, giving this small-town 5K a distinct community purpose beyond the timing results.
