The first man and woman to complete the free 5K race will each take home a turkey and a trophy.
A few lucky losers will still bring home a bird in time for Thanksgiving. Participants are eligible to be entered into a raffle for turkeys and other prizes.
Adults and children of all ages are welcome to participate, according to Peter Rossetti, chairman of the Friends of Breakheart.
The race is sponsored by the state Department of Recreation and Conservation and the Friends.
