It’s 2024 and for the 34th time we will be hosting THE Great Pumpkin Classic 5K Run!  We are looking forward to seeing you. Last year the Great Pumpkin was blessed with a beautiful Fall day, and we had a blast!

We have had a race every year since 1991. Even in 2020 we were able to host the “Pumpkin Reboot” in November to celebrate our 30th year! More than 20 people of the 349 finishers from our first GPC in 1991 joined us for the historic occasion.  

This year we will use the same course as the last four years. This route is very much like our original course from 1991 with a bit of an uphill the first mile. Then a GREAT DOWNHILL for .3mi that you’ll love! We do have that short ‘Laurie Rd Hill’ at the start of the third mile some of you may remember... but it’s only 1/10 mi!  We promise that you can enjoy the downhill & flats right after! 

The untimed Walk For Health will again be an easy 1.7mi. The Kids Fun Run will again be on the nice, flat track! And and good as  ever thanks to Jon Dizney and his team.

The run, walk & kids committees, sponsors, and volunteers truly appreciate you joining us as we return to THS. You will be helping to add to our proceeds which have totaled over $325,000 in scholarships since our start in 1991.
 
Our charities include the Trumbull High School Scholarship Foundation and the Trumbull Schools PTSA.         
 
PLEASE PRE REGISTER ONLINE ASAP to avoid race day stress and TO ENSURE SHIRT SIZING & AVAILABILITY.  Online reg only on event day ends ten minutes before the start.
