Register your family for the YMCA Thanksgiving Morning Run Thru the Woods, presented by Gullo Dealearships, and help the Y and our community celebrate a “return to running and live events.”
For more than three decades, Run Thru The Woods has been one of the premier running and walking family events in Texas. The 2021 event will be held November 25 at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion in The Woodlands Town Center. Designed for a wide variety of participants, categories and start times include a competitive one-mile Children’s Race for ages 12 and younger starting at 7:30 a.m.; a five-mile race at 8:15 a.m.; and a three-mile race and three-mile walk starting at 8:25 a.m. Wear your favorite Thanksgiving costume. Strollers are welcomed, but please leave your pets at home.
Awards include a special prize package to the top finishers in each category. Additionally, a uniquely designed finisher medal will be handed out at the finish line to all participants.
“Over the years, this popular holiday event has never lost touch with its mission: to provide a fun community event for all ages and all levels, promoting youth development, healthy living, community service and social responsibility as well as raising awareness and funds for the deserving youth organizations the event supports,” said Roxanne Davis, Race Director and Community Liaison of The Woodlands Family YMCAs. “Give back, give thanks, let’s run and have fun! YMCA Run Thru The Woods is a great way to begin Thanksgiving Day and kick off the holiday season.”
