Has anyone done the Thundercloud Turkey Trot? The event website says the 5 mile race is from 930am to 1pm. Are there waves? First timer here. I'm supposed to have lunch with a friend and their family, and I'm trying to figure out if I can squeeze in the race if I meet my friend around 1230-1pm.

I did a few years ago. Everyone starts at the same time but it takes a while for everyone to get going if you are towards the end of the group. When I did it, it was really cold and they delayed the start time multiple times. Still got done way before 12:30 though although it depends on how fast you can run a 5 mile too. I thought it was a 5k. Between the cold and the extra 3k I have the best time.

When I did it years ago, there weren’t waves. You just gathered by the start and everyone went together but like the person above said, it basically takes a bit for everyone to go across the start line. I too mistook/misremembered the race as a 5k rather than 5 miles LOL but depending on how fast/slow you are, you should be fine! Maybe try to get there a bit early so you can line up towards the front of the crowd too.

Usually slower runners hang back and let the serious ones go. Some people just walk.

I don't believe there are waves I think everyone starts at the same time and then like everyone said it kind of thins out based on how fast or how slow you are running.

Maybe he’s looking for new jobs already - don’t mind this at all and this would be a good outcome for him overall.
