Freudenthal Wins Southpark Turkey Trot in Course Record

The Greenville Track Club-ELITE's Adam Freudenthal ran a course record 24:13 to easily win the Southpark Turkey Trot 8K road race. One of Charlotte's biggest and oldest events attracted almost 9,000 participants on a beautiful Thanksgiving morning with the temperature near 50-degrees at the start.. 

After an opening mile under 4:40, Freudenthal broke away from his closest competition just after two miles and won by over 35 seconds over the moderately hilly route winding through some of the city's nicest neighborhoods before finishing in front of Dick's Sporting Goods at the exclusive Southpark Mall. 

The GTC-ELITE is proud to be sponsored by ASICS for footwear & apparel and by SOLEUS for their timing watches.
