Each Thanksgiving, VIRR organizes a special Turkey Trot race at Keokea Park. This year, the prizes will be awarded to participants with the most creative Thanksgiving-themed outfits. The 8-mile race kicks off at 7:00 am, followed by the 5K at 7:30 am. The course begins at the park, extends onto Thompson Road, and ends back at Keokea Park.

We'll be gathering non-perishable food donations for the Maui Food Bank. Join us for a run before indulging in your Thanksgiving feast!
