AUSTIN (KXAN) — It’s the season of giving here in Austin, and thousands of participants will gather downtown Thursday to give thanks and get their sweat on ahead of Thanksgiving festivities.

The 33rd annual ThunderCloud Subs Turkey Trot returns Thursday, featuring untimed and timed five-mile races, a Stepping Stone School Kids K race, a one-mile walk and run course as well as a virtual event option. All proceeds will benefit Caritas of Austin, a nonprofit aimed at mitigating and ending homelessness in Austin.

Ahead of getting your strut and/or feast on Thursday, here’s a look at some of the road closures planned throughout downtown Austin.
