The Commodore Hull Thanksgiving Day 5K Road Race offers a great, early morning run through the historic downtowns of Shelton and Derby. The race is finished in plenty of time to get to the annual Shelton-Derby football game, then on to your Thanksgiving Day celebrations.
This popular race has become a noted and looked for Valley event every Thanksgiving and sells out quickly.
The race has become so successful that the number of timed runners has been increased several times, and is now limited to 800. Registration closes as soon as that limit is reached, and no registrations are taken on race day.
