What does it mean that the event is virtual?
A virtual event is an event that can be run (or walked) from any location you choose. You can run, jog, or walk on the road, on the trail, on the treadmill or on the track. You get to run your own race, at your own pace, and time it yourself.
You’ll be given the opportunity to record your time for the 5 Mile and 1 Mile Walk/Run and see how you stack against others in the same distance. The Kids event will include some warm up activities and a walk/run in your neighborhood. You may also participate in the ThunderCloud Subs Turkey Trot Challenge on Strava throughout Thanksgiving week.
Registration Fees
| Mon, Aug. 31 | Thurs, Oct. 15 | |
| 5 Mile Walk/Run | $20 | $25 |
| 1 Mile Walk/Run | $20 | $25 |

Options for In Person Packet Pickup or Shipping
You’ll be given the option during registration to select to pick up your packet in person, or have it shipped to your door.
We strongly urge individuals to consolidate their pickups to prevent overcrowding at our packet pickup locations. You are welcome to pick up packets for friends and family members.

Information about Shipping
If receiving your packet prior to Thanksgiving is important to you, we recommend you choose to pick up your packet in person. Or, you can also register for the event prior to October 31st, and your package will be amongst the first batch processed in early November for shipment. While we will continue to fulfill shipments weekly leading up to Thanksgiving Day, and after, due to the uncertainty of transit time with the postal service, we can not guarantee any mailed packets are received prior to Thanksgiving Day.

Thanks For Supporting Caritas of Austin!
100% of all proceeds for this event are donated to Caritas of Austin. Caritas of Austin has been ThunderCloud Subs Turkey Trot’s sole beneficiary since the beginning in 1991. During the past 30 years, ThunderCloud has given more than $4.1 million to Caritas.
Caritas of Austin believes that when every person has a stable place to call home, they can realize their full potential and contribute to our community. They build wellbeing by making sure that people have a safe home, access to healthy groceries, jobs that provide a reliable living wage, and educational opportunities to learn life skills. All of us need a sturdy foundation and layers of support in our lives to thrive; that’s what creates a strong community. Their innovative, personalized and proven approach to building wellbeing and ending homelessness creates a more vibrant Austin for everyone.
During these uncertain times, the services provided by Caritas of Austin are needed now more than ever.
