Angels & Sparrows’ 6th Annual Thanksgiving Family 5K

Runners legs on a red track

Join the 6th Annual Angels & Sparrows Family 5K this coming Thursday, November 23, 2017. The event will take place at Fleet Feet Sports Huntersville in Birkdale Village.

The Angels & Sparrows Family 5K is open to everyone, so make sure to invite your family, relatives, neighbors, and friends! Joining the run is the perfect way to kick off the holiday season!

This year, the race will have two starting times – faster runners are encouraged to start at 8am, while runners bringing their dogs (make sure they’re leashed) or those with baby carriages can start at 8:10am. Participants will be running along the Greenway, and a water station will be set up at the 1.5-mile marker. Donuts and bagels, as well as hot chocolate, coffee, and water will be served during the event, and the Angels & Sparrows Food Truck will be available on-site.

Also new this year is a pre-trot stretch session hosted by BenchMark Physical Therapy – and a new water station for your dogs.
