Thanksgiving Day Apple Cup 5K

Thursday, November 26, 2026Seattle, WA5K

Celebrate Thanksgiving and the Apple Cup rivalry with this festive 5K at Seattle's iconic Green Lake Park. The course is a flat, fast, and paved loop around the lake, making it an ideal choice for runners chasing a new personal best. Participants are encouraged to show their spirit by wearing Husky or Cougar colors, or even dressing up as a turkey. The race concludes with a final stretch around the ball fields, featuring a slightly downhill finish to help you kick to the line. Beyond the competition, the event supports local food shelters, so runners are encouraged to bring non-perishable donations. It is a welcoming, stroller-friendly event designed for fun and community spirit.
