Run for The Banquet

RUN HARD. GIVE THANKS!

Before the turkey. Before the football. Before the pie. We run.

Whether you’re a serious runner, a casual walker, pushing a stroller, bringing the kids, dressing like a turkey, or simply looking for a meaningful way to start Thanksgiving, you belong at the starting line.

There is NO REQUIRED ENTRY FEE to participate. Run for The Banquet has always been about bringing the community together, with a suggested $20 donation helping support The Banquet and the thousands of meals we serve throughout the year.
REGISTRATION IS OPEN NOW!

Registration is encouraged so we know you’re joining us. Choose your distance, make your donation, or simply register for free and donate at the event.

GET YOUR OFFICIAL RACE SHIRT!
Make Thanksgiving morning official with your Run Hard. Give Thanks! Run for The Banquet shirt.

 Shirts must be ordered by November 11, so don’t wait until you’re halfway through the pumpkin pie to remember you wanted one.

MORE THAN A RUN
This isn’t about finish times or being the fastest person on the course.

Run it. Walk it. Bring your family. Bring your friends. Bring the dog. Wear something ridiculous and Thanksgiving-themed.

We’ll kick things off with a LIVE DJ, plenty of Thanksgiving spirit, and a whole bunch of people choosing to begin the holiday with gratitude, community and giving back.

CAN’T BE IN SIOUX FALLS? RUN FROM ANYWHERE!
Thanksgiving taking you somewhere else?

Join us from anywhere.

Run around the neighborhood. Walk on a treadmill. Join us from Texas, across the country or across the world. Run before the turkey, after the pie, or tell us the couch won this year.

Register for Run From Anywhere and let us know where you’re joining us from!

WANT TO HELP WITHOUT RUNNING?
We need volunteers throughout the event for registration, course monitoring, parking, greeters, photography, the Kids Race, set-up, tear-down and more.
