Welcome to the second annual Springville Hobble before you Gobble Thanksgiving morning 10, 5K and Children's Fun Run, sponsored by Hobble Creek Dental (who I trust personally with my family's dental care.)

Run through Springville's beautiful farmland with friends and family to begin the day with community and wellness! Professionally timed and affordable family pricing. Every participant who registers before Nov 9 is guaranteed a race beanie. All profits will go to Utah Valley Refugees ahead of the holiday season. We are so honored to be mentored by Karlberg Racing. Karlberg racing hosts many amazing events in Utah County, including Payson Orchards Triathlon, Splash Summit Triathlon and the Goldilocks bike race.

Location:
The race will begin at Ray Arthur Wing Park (950 W 125 N Springville, UT 84663), just south of last year's location. Runners will head north to 900 N where they will turn west and follow the road until a sign directs them to turn left at 1050 W, just before the train tracks. From there runners will continue south to center street where volunteers will be ready to hand out water before you turn left again and run until a sign directs you to turn left back on 950 W. The 5K will finish back at Ray Arthur Wing Park. The 10k will go on for a second lap of the same course.

Prizes:
Between the 10K/5K and the Fun Run we will be holding a raffle based on your bib number to give away Thanksgiving pies. All registrants are eligible for the raffle. This year we will have tear away bibs to make the raffle more efficient and only those who drop their number into the bowl will be entered.

Inclement Weather:
We will race in almost any weather! If the city deems the weather unsafe you can still pick up your beanie and swag bag with our deepest regrets. Refunds will not be issued based on weather or cancellation due solely to the fact that all expenses will have already been paid for.

Packet Pick Up:

1. Early packet pick up will be at Hobble Creek Dental Care (143 E 200 S, Springville, UT 84663) on Wednesday Nov. 22rd from 10am-1pm. You are welcome and encouraged to pick up packets for friends and family to simplify the process for yourselves and for us!

2. General packet pick up will be at the event beginning at 6:45am.

Parking:
Parking is limited so we highly encourage carpooling with friends and family. There is a very small parking lot at Ray Arthur Wing Park but two neighboring churches with plenty of parking. Please avoid parking along the race course.

Raffle:
The raffle will begin at approximately 9AM. Winners will be randomly drawn based on bib numbers. You must be present to claim your prizes. We have even more holiday hams and thanksgiving pies than last year.

Race Winners:
1. Medals will be awarded to the top three overall men and female racers. Medals will also be awarded to the top three in each age division.

2 The top three (under age 13) fun run winners will also receive a medal. This race will not be chipped time so it will be determined by the first three participants to cross the finish line.

1. There will be no awards ceremony. Instead if you believe you are in the top three based on the card print out and/or the results website that you can access through the QR code on your bib, please go to the awards table to confirm and claim your medal. We will celebrate you there and let everyone get home to Thanksgiving dinner!

Weather:
It's looking like a brisk 30 degrees with a potential for light rain. Dress warmly. We will have hot chocolate and a few heat stands to keep you warm.
