Courage Worldwide Hosts 7th Annual Turkey Trot November 26, 2015
(PRWEB) November 17, 2015 -- The 7th Annual Elk Grove Turkey Trot is a great family friendly race and it supports Courage House. Thanksgiving morning, over 2000 runners and walkers and about 150 volunteers are expected to come together and make this another successful event. This multi-city 5k/10k annual race series benefits Courage House- homes for minor girls rescued out of sex trafficking. The first annual race began with a group of volunteers in Elk Grove, CA in 2009 (The Elk Grove Turkey Trot) and now is expanding to 5 cities this year with plans to continue to expand all over the world. From the beginning the organization’s vision and plan has been to have runs in multiple cities.
If you are interested in bringing one to your city, contact run(at)courageworldwide(dot)org
If you are not local runners may run "virtually" in their own community and Courage Worldwide will mail a t-shirt and finisher's medal. For more information, go to http://www.couragerun.org
