Q: What if it rains on race day?
A: Then we strut… and we strut proudly! We won't let a little rain ruffle our feathers
Q: I am registered but can't attend anymore -- what are my options?
A: We’ll miss you at the start line! Unfortunately, the Strut Your Stuffing 5K doesn’t offer refunds or deferrals — that policy applies to everything from travel hiccups to surprise sniffles. BUT! There is a silver lining in this gravy boat: You can still transfer your bib to another runner through Monday, November 24th. After that, the transfer window closes tighter than the lid on the cranberry sauce.
Check out our TRANSFER OPTIONS page for all the details.
And remember: shirts, medals, awards, and swag will not be mailed to anyone who doesn’t attend. We appreciate your understanding.
Q: Do you offer virtual options?
A: This turkey trot is all about in-person holiday cheer.
Only those who show up and complete the run (or walk!) will take home a shiny finisher medal. Lace up and come strut with us!
Q: Can I exchange my shirt if it doesn't fit?
A: You bet your buttered biscuits!
You’ll get the size and style you selected during registration, but if it’s not quite your perfect fit, you can exchange it. Shirt exchanges open at 7:30AM on race day at the registration table. Sizes are first come, first served, so the early turkey gets the worm (or… the right size). Please check your fit before leaving — once the event wraps, exchanges are closed.
Q: Do I have to wear my race number?
A: Yes — everyone must wear their race bib, clearly displayed on the FRONT of your shirt or outermost layer during the event. Your race number is how we time and score you. If we can’t see it, you may not show up in the results — and we don’t want that! The only exception: children 4 years or younger who stay in a stroller for the entire race don’t need a bib.🚫 Please don’t wear someone else’s bib or carry one that isn’t assigned to you — no bib sharing or swapping allowed, for safety and fairness.
Q: Are dogs allowed on the course? A: We love pups… but this turkey trot is a no-dog zone for safety reasons.
That includes the finish line area too. Thanks for helping us keep the flock safe!
Q: Can I walk instead of run?
A: Absolutely! Walk, strut, waddle — all are welcome!
If you’re walking, please start toward the back so the speedier turkeys can zoom ahead safely.
Q: Can we bring strollers or baby joggers?
A: Sure! But we do ask that you start in the back so as not to impede the other runners.
Q: Where can I see my results?
A:Right after you cross the finish line, check out the scrolling monitors nearby to see how you did! You can also text your bib number to the number on the back of your bib and get your official time sent straight to your phone. Plus, a few minutes after you finish, preliminary results will be live online at 131Results.com so you can brag to your friends ASAP! Please make sure to check your results before you leave the event.
Q: Will there be any race photos?
A:Absolutely! We’ll have our photographer capturing all the fun moments — and the best part? All race photos will be free to download with no watermarks! That said, we can’t guarantee every moment will be caught on camera. If you want a specific shot, just give our photographer a friendly shout — they’ll be happy to snap your picture! Smile big and say 'TURKEY"
