Royston Turkey Trot 5K and 1 mile fun run

Join Fleet Feet Athens/ Oconee and the Athens Road Runners to celebrate Global Running Day with THE BIG RUN! We will run from Athentic Brewing on Wednesday, June 3 at 6:30pm, with both 1 mile and 3 mile route options. Bring the whole family to run and celebrate afterwards with food, drinks (both alcoholic and nonalcoholic available!) from Athentic, lots of fun activities for the kids, and raffle prizes! This is a walker friendly event, with strollers and pets welcome, as well!

D-Day is the perfect time to honor the soldiers who trained at Camp Toccoa and all veterans who served and jumped into Normandy on June 6, 1944. The 10K Run and Memorial Walk will take you in the footsteps of the 18,000 who trained on Currahee Mountain during WWII.

All proceeds from the events will be used for the Camp Toccoa at Currahee Project to preserve the Legacy of Leadership exemplified by the men who trained there. Thank you for supporting the event and celebrating the Greatest Generation!
