We wish the best to Alumnus Drew Haro’ 03 and fellow alumni who will be running in the the 108th annual New Orleans Athletic Club’s Turkey Day Race on Thanksgiving morning! Brother Martin Alumni will not only compete in the race, but many will run for the Turkey Day Alumni Championship title. It is an “unofficial” competition that has become a tradition where former high school cross country runners compete against one another for braggging rights and a wooden trophy called “Running Man.” Various alumni from schools such as Jesuit, Rummel, Holy Cross, and St. Paul’s compete in the race every year.
The NOAC Turkey Day Race is hosted by the New Orleans Track Club beneffiting Spina Bifida of Greater New Orleans. The 5-mile run/walk will start outside Tad Gormley Stadium in City Park at 8:30 a.m. The race ends inside the stadium named for the man who began the Turkey Day Race 108 years ago.
